3 years ago I can give you some pointers, though I am completely unfamiliar with NodeJS, JavaScript and typescript, so I can't help you on the issues you will face. Hopefully someone else with an understanding of JavaScript can provide some insight. This "tutorial" will be mostly aimed at Linux as that's what I use, but I will try to include Windows instructions as well.
Prerequisites
First you need NodeJS, yarn and typescript installed on your system. You will also likely need chrome / chromium, though any web browser might be sufficient - I haven't tested without chromium installed. If you don't want to install npm packages globally, omit the -g flag from the commands!
For Ubuntu and derivatives
Open me!
You will need to add the yarn repository to your sources. The yarn package included by default in the Ubuntu repos is an outdated version called "cmdtest." `curl -sS https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -` `echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list` The following installs yarn, NodeJS and NPM (the latter two are requirements of yarn, so they are installed as well. If you already have NodeJS and NPM, use the --no-install-recommends flag to prevent yarn from installing NodeJS and NPM.) `sudo apt update` `sudo apt install yarn` Now you need to install typescript. `sudo npm install -g typescript` `sudo npm install -g puppeteer-core`
For Fedora, CentOS and RHEL
Open me!
You can install yarn through yum, just add the repo and install. `curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/rpm/yarn.repo -o /etc/yum.repos.d/yarn.repo` If you're on CentOS or RHEL, use the following. `sudo yum install yarn` If you're on Fedora, use the following. `sudo dnf install yarn` These should install yarn NPM and NodeJS, but I'm not entirely sure. If you use RHEL systems you should be able to figure out how to install NodeJS yourself, they might be in the yum repo as well - in which case just replace yarn with NodeJS. Now you need to install typescript and puppeteer core. `sudo npm install -g typescript` `sudo npm install -g puppeteer-core`
For Windows / macOS
Open me!
You can use the official installers to download NodeJS and NPM. You should use the long term support version, but you can try the latest as well. Afterwards, open a cmd prompt or terminal and put in the following. You may need to preface with sudo on macOS, and run with admin privileges on Windows. `npm install -g yarn` `npm install -g typescript` `npm install -g puppeteer-core` Try the above without the -g flag if it fails, I'm unsure if you need to specify global installation on macOS or Windows.
Actually using the program
Now that these are installed, you need to clone this repository. You can either do this by downloading the zip and extracting it from the main page or by using git:
git clone https://github.com/ottomated/turtle-gambit
Place the repo wherever you wish, and cd into the directory.
cd /path/to/cloned/repo/
Now run the following.
yarn
yarn dev
And you're golden. It should launch a web browser with the following link http://localhost:3000 or http://127.0.0.1:3000, which is a link to the program running on your computer. Theoretically, you can now open computer craft, run the startup.lua as Ottomated did in his video (paste turtle/startup.lua onto a pastebin and download it onto a floppy in CC) and it should work!
EDIT: My issue was to do with missing dependencies. I now get a different but smaller error related to puppeteer-core and Carlo. I've put that in at the bottom and added the additional dependencies to install above.
So, I actually haven't gotten it to work. As I said, I'm entirely unfamiliar with NodeJS, just giving you instructions in case you want to figure it out on your own or someone else familiar with NodeJS is kind enough to come along and debug. For those interested, my log is below:

when executing yarn dev on the frontend folder I'm hit with this error
installation error whilst installing "npm next"
Ok I've now installed "npm next" and continued as normal, now I'm prompted with this error screen

will you make a tutorial on how to use this amazing piece of code?
