I've git cloned, npm installed, npm run build, and it seems to be working but I can't figure out how to get any data into the system.

I see a login but not a register? I see stuff in settings.js about a password for creating new users, but I can't figure out where to use that information.

I havn't set up the email server yet, is that the problem?

am I missing something?

You should see a page like the screenshot below when you access the bionet web app and aren't logged in. In the bottom text field you need to enter the signup password which is set in settings.js as userSignupPassword and the default value is "code". Enter that password and click sign up.

Also just a general note. I don't know if I mentioned that it's worth trying stuff in Chrome/Chromium if you have issues in firefox. We're working on a cross browser test rig but Tim has been mostly working on UI stuff in Chrome.
