Quick bootstrap

If you're already familiar with working in D3 or web development, go ahead and set up your workstation based on the following commands by jumping directly to the Step-by-step bootstrap section.

A detailed explanation of this chapter's concepts will be covered if further instructions are needed. By the end of the chapter, you should feel comfortable in using the Quick bootstrap section as a convention throughout the book. The following instructions assume that Node.js and npm are already installed on your system.

Type in the following in the command line:

# Install a light webserver
npm install -g http-server

# Install topojson
npm install -g topojson

# Clone the sample code with included libraries
git clone --depth=1 [email protected]:climboid/d3jsMaps.git

# start the project
cd d3jsMaps
http-server
