git clone git://github.com/desaperados/seed.git seed
cd seed
script/setup demo
script/server

Load http://localhost:3000 in your browser
h2. Customising All customisation is handled inside vendor/plugins/yourappname_engine To override the default stylesheet create a file named default.css in vendor/plugins/yourappname_engine/public/stylesheets/default.css Additional stylesheets in this directory will be automatically detected and included in the document head. You can override default views by replicating the main seed view directory in yourappname_engine/app/views. For example to override the default articles index:
seed
  /app
    /views
      /articles
        index.html.erb
Create your own index.html.erb here:
seed
  /vendor
    /plugins
      /yourappname_engine
        /app
          /articles
            index.html.erb
