Getting started on a repo

So you've just checked out a repo. Download npm and bower dependencies with:

yarn install
bower install

(npm is also fine, but yarn tends to be faster and is also what travis uses)

Now you're ready to start developing. Run npx gulp serve to start a browsersync-hosted local web server that will automatically recompile SCSS and JS when you make changes.

If you want to recompile your code without starting browsersync, just run npx gulp.
