Install

X-Tag uses Bower Package Manager and Gruntjs to download and build the script dependencies.

Using NPM, download and install the following tools and dependencies by running:

$ npm install bower -g   // install globally since you'll probably be using this tool in more than one project
$ npm install grunt-cli -g  // install globally too, it's that cool!
$ npm install grunt --save-dev -g  //  save to devDependencies and global
$ npm install grunt-smush-components --save-dev   // This is our grunt helper that builds all of your components
$ npm install grunt-contrib-concat --save-dev  // Concatenation tool
$ npm install grunt-contrib-jshint --save-dev  // Keep your code lint free
