Installing from source

While it is recommended to install PiBakery from one of the downloads on www.PiBakery.org/download.html, you can also install PiBakery from source if you want to see how it works, or edit PiBakery in any way.

To install PiBakery from source, you'll need NodeJS and npm installed. Once you have them installed, clone the GitHub repository with
git clone https://github.com/davidferguson/pibakery.git

Change into the newly downloaded directory with
cd pibakery

And install the required node modules using
npm install
This will take a few minutes to complete.

You can then run PiBakery using
npm start
