Steam

Steam is H₂O's web client.

OSX

Install Node.js, dependencies, and build everything.

brew install node
npm install -g bower
cd h2o/client
make setup build

And then point your browser to http://localhost:54321/steam/index.html

Linux

First, install Node.js by following the instructions on the Node.js wiki, and then:

npm install -g bower
cd h2o/client
make setup build

And then point your browser to http://localhost:54321/steam/index.html

Windows

Note: You'll need a working cygwin environment. You probably have one already for building h2o.

Step 1. Install Node.js using the official installer. When done, you should have node.exe and npm.cmd in \Program Files\node\. These should also be available on your PATH. If not, add the folder to your PATH.

Step 2. Install bower

npm install -g bower

Step 3. Install the required npm and bower packages (outside cygwin):

cd \h2o\client
npm install
bower install

Step 4. Now, from your cygwin prompt, run:

cd /h2o/client
make build

Note: On OSX/Linux, you would normally run Step 3 as make setup, which would in turn run npm install and bower install. However, running npm from within cygwin currently has issues: see #3710).

And then point your browser to http://localhost:54321/steam/index.html
