Using CoffeeScript & Cake

First, make sure you have the proper CoffeeScript / Cake set-up in place.

1. Install Coffeescript: the CoffeeScript documentation provides easy-to-follow instructions.
2. Install UglifyJS: npm -g install uglify-js
3. Verify that your $NODE_PATH is properly configured using echo $NODE_PATH

Once you're configured, building the JavasScript from the command line is easy:

cake build                # build Chosen from source
cake watch                # watch coffee/ for changes and build Chosen

If you're interested, you can find the recipes in Cakefile.
