videojs.com (the video.js website)

The site uses Harp as the main framework. It also uses Browserify and Babel for ES2015 (javascript) modules.

Setup

1. Install the dependencies

$ npm install

2. Run the grunt dev task to generate the files and run a server. Once it's running you can start working. A local preview is running on port 9000.

Note: I sometimes get errors here and have to downgrade to node v4 - @heff

$ grunt dev

Deploy

We use github pages for site hosting. The site files live in the master branch and then are moved to the gh-pages branch to be deployed. The file structure is changed during the deploy process so gh-pages is never merged back into master.

1. Make sure the master branch is up to date.

   git pull master
   

2. Checkout the gh-pages branch and make sure it's up to date, then merge master into it.

   git checkout gh-pages
   git pull gh-pages
   git merge master
   

3. Generate the dist files.

   grunt dist
   

4. Push the changes.

   git push
   

**If you accidently run grunt dist in the master branch you need to reset your branch. Don't push dist files to master.
