I am also running into this exact same issue. I tried copying the files that got installed by Bower into bower_components into the static/js folder, then changed over to:

ui.render_layout(app, "./static/js/layout.js") ...but had no luck.

More broadly, the "Basic" example is basic in its explanation but it is pretty hard to follow if you're new to the whole of Pyxley's dependencies. It really assumes that the reader knows a lot about the other environments before it actually feels basic.

FWIW - here are other examples I had to figure out:

• where do I get the right bower.json for the basic project I am building?
• where do I get the right package.json for the basic project I am building?

Here's what I ended up going with: bower.json

layout.js is actually generated on the fly by the code during startup based on the following code in app.py:

sb = ui.render_layout(app, "./static/layout.js")
