## Free and Open Source
Kiri:Moto and Mesh:Tool are completely open source and free for use without restriction. Over 12 years in development, this passion project has grown well beyond its original scope. It has consumed most of my free time for many years. Please consider donating to support continued development.

The Windows and Mac binaries are not signed, so you will need to jump through a few safety hoops to get them to open the first time.

## Testing Locally (with Docker)
2021-12-26 22:26:53 -05:00
```
git clone git@github .com:GridSpace/grid-apps.git
cd grid-apps
docker-compose -f src/dock/compose.yml up
```

## Testing Locally (with NodeJS)
2017-04-18 17:09:33 -04:00
```
2020-06-14 21:51:32 -04:00
git clone git@github .com:GridSpace/grid-apps.git

to start a local instance of the apps. then use a browser to open
[localhost:8080/kiri ](http://localhost:8080/kiri )
2021-01-02 11:24:07 -05:00
if installing the app-server fails or gives you permissions errors, then your node installation (on linux/mac) is installed as another user (like root). try instead:
```
sudo npm install -g @gridspace/app -server
```
2021-02-24 19:51:42 -05:00
Alternatively, if you are using a packaged version of npm that ships with
a Linux distribution, but still want to install in your home directory, you
can use
```
npm config set prefix ~/.local
```
If gs-app-server is not found, then perhaps ~/.local/bin is not in
your path. You can either add it to your path, or you can run:
```
2021-09-27 19:34:59 -04:00
~/.local/bin/gs-app-server --debug
2021-02-24 19:51:42 -05:00
```
2021-08-14 22:13:06 -04:00
2021-12-26 19:43:48 -05:00
You can now access your environment of grid-apps by going to
2021-12-26 17:20:39 -05:00
