This is a Yeoman Generator for the Skeleton App of the Aurelia platform. It sets up a standard navigation-style app using gulp to build your ES6 code with the 6to5 compiler. Karma/Jasmine testing is also configured.

yo aurelia- Install the apps NodeJS dependencies
npm install- Ensure that Gulp is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:
npm install -g gulp- Ensure that jspm is installed. If you need to install it, use the following command:
npm install -g jspmNote: jspm queries GitHub to install semver packages, but GitHub has a rate limit on anonymous API requests. It is advised that you configure jspm with your GitHub credentials in order to avoid problems. You can do this by executing
jspm endpoint config githuband following the prompts.
- Install the client-side dependencies with jspm:
jspm installNote: Windows users, if you experience an error of "unknown command unzip" you can solve this problem by doing
npm install -g unzipand then re-runningjspm install.
- To run the app, execute the following command:
gulp watch- Browse to http://localhost:9000 to see the app. You can make changes in the code found under
srcand the browser should auto-refresh itself as you save files.
In order to create a new Aurelia Page just enter the following command inside your project root:
yo aurelia:page YOURPAGENAMEIf you get an error like
Error: spawn git ENOENTwhen executing the yo command, you should check whether GIT is installed and accessible from the command line
This will create a View and ViewModel with the given name inside the ./src folder
