## Important notes
Please don't edit files in the `dist` or `docs` subdirectory as they are generated via Grunt & jekyll. You'll find all source code & documentation source in the `src` subdirectory! 

### Code style
Regarding code style like indentation and whitespace, **follow the conventions you see used in the source already.**
 
## Modifying the code
First, ensure that you have the latest [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) and [npm](http://npmjs.org/) installed.

Test that Grunt's CLI and Bower are installed by running `grunt --version` and `bower --version`.  If the commands aren't found, run `npm install -g grunt-cli bower`.  For more information about installing the tools, see the [getting started with Grunt guide](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) or [bower.io](http://bower.io/) respectively.

1. Fork and clone the repo.
1. Run `npm install` to install all build dependencies (including Grunt).
1. Run `bower install` to install the front-end dependencies.
1. Run `grunt` to grunt this project.

Assuming that you don't see any red, you're ready to go. Just be sure to run `grunt` after making any changes, to ensure that nothing is broken.

#### Useful tasks:

1. `grunt dist` - Create a new version of the 'dist' folder and recompile everything from source.
1. `grunt demo` - Copies all demo dependencies into demo folder, i.e when updating to latest Bootstrap
1. `jekyll build` - Run the documentation generator.

## Submitting pull requests

1. Create a new branch, please don't work in your `master` branch directly.
1. Add failing tests for the change you want to make. Run `grunt` to see the tests fail.
1. Fix stuff.
1. Run `grunt` to see if the tests pass. Repeat steps 2-4 until done.
1. Open `test/*.html` unit test file(s) in actual browser to ensure tests pass everywhere.
1. Update the documentation to reflect any changes.
1. Push to your fork and submit a pull request.
