Hello, in an older version of Livecodelab there was an index.html showing the user interface. Where can I find it now or how can I start Livecodelab on another way?

Hi,

Guy (@rumblesan) moved LCL on to using a local server in the process of improving the build system (it's now much faster to make changes for example), and some features such as MIDI synch and dynamic loading of sounds are easier if done with a server, and we thought that people could still use the online version for basic use anyways.

All in all, we do recommend using a local server, take a look at this doc on how to do that: https://github.com/davidedc/livecodelab/blob/master/docs/how-tos/build.md I'm not a big fan of "deep" build setups in general but this one is OK, it doesn't take any particular configuration, just a few commands on the terminal and we tried to make sure that the guide leaves no surprises.

If really pressed, we could probably still have LCL to work in local filesystem rather than via a local server, we just found more natural to move on.

If you really really really want a ready-made index.html file that you can just drop in the browser, then just download this and you are set (it's from a version 3-months old): https://github.com/davidedc/livecodelab/archive/5b8e6d8ae6b7c96510dcbf226a9a5f584caf72c8.zip

I'm closing this for now, but just add more comments/questions in here if you run into troubles, let us know if you need more help!
