Same for me. Just downloaded the latest release (v0.16.2) and entered npm install and npm run start_win into Powershell (on Windows).
Looking at the error messages I would guess that a directory called lib is missing in themes\default\public.

[benruehl]

Ok I solved it now. Before running npm run start_win one has to run npm run gulp first. The gulp script copies some depedencies to the lib folder.

In my opinion, as this is not documented at http://docs.raneto.com/install/installing-raneto it should be either added to the docs or the gulp task should be included in the start_win command.

How did you start off, @benruehl?

The docs tell me to run git init in my empty project directory, but obviously that's not all that is needed. The prerequisites list tells me to install node, so I ran npm init also, and then added renato by running npm install renato.

After some browsing in the node_modules/renato/ folder, I started copying folders from the themes folder, but still that's not all that is needed.

I think the documentation lacks some prerequisites. Is a node express app supposed to be the startoff point?

@eloekset I followed the steps explained here: http://docs.raneto.com/install/installing-raneto
Step 2 gives you the option to add Raneto as a dependency or include the source files of Raneto directly. I did the latter.

[ryanlelek]

Yes, our docs need work.

Here's my summary, if I'm understanding correctly.
There are files generated in this repo that populate public/lib
That population tools is called gulp
If gulp was not run (maybe Windows didnt run it, maybe it's not run when included as a module), those files would not exist.

Actions we'll take:

• Update documentation
• Potentially include the pre-generated public directory
• Potentially hook into post-build scripts within NPM when used as a module
• Potentially split off examples into their own repositories and use Raneto more as a library.

This is late, but if you're still having problems or questions, please ask them here

Closing and moving to documentation megathread (see above)
