update readme for mac os x #505

Closed intoxicated closed 10 years ago

intoxicated commented 10 years ago

I think its better to keep update readme for new users, previous installation won't work on mac 10.9.

jonathanong commented 10 years ago

hmmm i don't think this is the ideal way to install it though. better to use a node version manager like nvm or n. what do you guys think?

intoxicated commented 10 years ago

Actually the way I installed was following: install node js from pkg (latest), and then do npm install -g component. Apparently installing component with 0.8.x node js didn't work

chemzqm commented 10 years ago

Tell the user that component 1.x is making use of --harmony flag of node and suggest the user to use n or nvm sounds better. As they can recover quickly from the fail.

jonathanong commented 10 years ago

only 0.10 is required through. it doesn't actually use --harmony because everythign is regenerated

jonathanong commented 10 years ago

yeah, going to just tell people to install the official version of node.
