More guidance on how to make samples work #111

Open SoulFireMage opened 8 years ago

SoulFireMage commented 8 years ago

Right now I wished to try the ray tracer sample. I've little experience with most of the web stuff here outside of basic ES6 javascript and html. I've cloned the whole repo and opened the folder in VS Code.

However, I can't locate a means of running the sample I want or setting up the dependencies. I found some instructions in Browserify but I'm missing package.json on the second step.

This tells me I've clearly missed some fundamental basics but there is nothing indicating how to go from minimal knowledge to making these run.

Help?

I'm still struggling: I've tried npm install -g typescript to get typescript onto the system so that was one hurdle.

However, really for folks looking to try this out, isn't there a setup guide anywhere please?

Sorry about the documentation issues. Let me know if #112 fixes this at all for you.
