Before you can run this from source, you'll need the disk image. It's not part of the
repository, but you can grab it using the Show Disk Image
button from the packaged
release, which does include the disk image.
Unpack the images
folder into the src
folder, creating this layout:
./src/images/windows95.img
Once you've done so, run npm install
and npm start
to run your local build.
