on npm install edition-node-gulp, my project should be bootstrapped with patternlab bits.
Actual Behavior
my project is not bootstrapped.
the docs here go into great detail of what npm is, how to use it, and install this package. however, what's missing is how to use it when installed as a dep. when installed as a dep, the gulpfile is buried in node_modules, and does not bootstrap the package you have just installed the gulp edition into.

@cdaringe

Just tried it and you're right indeed. To bootstrap, you may need to perform the following two steps:

Copy some config files

cp node_modules/edition-node-gulp/patternlab-config.json .
cp node_modules/edition-node-gulp/gulpfile.js .
