mds notes

my install snafu, using "predators"

These are just notes to self so I have a dummy's guide to set up:

echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
sudo apt update && sudo apt install yarn

## now in project dir/
yarn install 
yarn upgrade --latest

## hmmmm

so i've learn since then that it's better not to call/use yarn directly, because foundation actually uses gulp, so this is how i now do manual updates:

sudo npm install -g gulp

That's the global install, after which you need a local install in the repo directory:

npm install gulp --save

The flag at the end may need to be different, but the first install will tell you which one to use. Then you just:

sudo gulp

... and everything should be auto-magically updated/upgraded/fixed :bomb:

ah, thanks for clarifying!
