Building from sources

The package already contains release and debug build in 'build\' directory. If you prefer to re-build it from sources perform the following steps:

1. Install build system

The build system is based on Grunt, The JavaScript Task Runner. Grunt is installed and managed via npm, the Node.js package manager. - Download and install Node.js from http://nodejs.org web site. - Install Grunt's command line interface (CLI) globally. You may need to use sudo (for OSX, *nix, BSD etc) or run your command shell as Administrator (for Windows) to do this. To install Grunt CLI run command:

 `npm install -g grunt-cli`

1. Install build dependencies

Change current working directory to Controls.js Package root and run:

 `npm install`

1. Run build tool

   grunt

Now you'll find the built files in 'build\' directory.
