This re-generates the CSS files from the LESS-source and places the final stylesheets in the source/common/assets/css-directory. Please note, that an automated workflow will run from time to time on the repository to do this, so in almost all cases it should suffice to pull from the develop branch from time to time. Currently, the default languages are: German (Germany), English (USA), English (UK), and French (France). It places the files in the source/common/lang-directory. This downloads the four default translations of the application from Zettlr Translate, with which it is shipped by default. This re-compiles the Handlebars.js template files and places the pre-compiled templates in the source/common/assets/handlebars-directory. You can occasionally run this command to pull potential updates from the repositories. This downloads the Citation Style Language (CSL) files with which the application is shipped, and places them in the source/main/assets/csl-locales- and source/main/assets/csl-styles-directories respectively. This means that within the release-directory you will find a pre-built binary, depending on your operating system. This command builds the app locally without packing it. Run them from within the base directory of the repository. These are defined within the package.json and can be run from the command line by prefixing them either with npm run or yarn, depending on which package manager you use. This section lists all available commands that you can use during application development. The next section will teach you everything you need to know about the commands at your disposal for developing the app. However, whenever you change something of the resources, you should run these commands again. The install-scripts will automatically precompile all assets for the first time, so that you can immediately run yarn start after cloning the repository. This is necessary to build the app locally.)
(Please note the second yarn install/ npm install in the source directory. Then, simply clone the repository and install the dependencies on your local computer:īash$ git clone $ cd Zettlr$ yarn install # or npm install$ cd source$ yarn install # or npm install Make sure Node and preferably Yarn are installed, which is the recommended package manager. Zettlr is an Electron-based app, so to start developing, you'll need to have a NodeJS-stack on your computer installed.
