Cannot find :dist

I cannot locate a dist file anywhere with anything in it

Hi y'all - I wanted to follow up on this user's comment.

I also can't find a dist folder anywhere in the files in the archives downloaded from GitHub. In the documentation provided on pattrn's website, however, it says that there should be one --- there's even mentioning of .json files in it (I can't find files with such names either).

I'd be super grateful if someone answered. Total newbie here and trying to follow the walkthrough provided by pattrn's team, but the files described and files available don't seem to match.

Thanks!

Hi guys
This file shout be generated after running a command in your terminal like:
$ yarn install (that install node dependencies)
$ npm run gulp build (that will build and generate a dist/ folder)

Its written here Package.json lines 6 to 10:
"scripts": {
"test": "yarn install --force && gulp build",
"bundle": "browserify --debug src/js/app.js | exorcist src/js/main.js.map > src/js/main.js",
"gulp": "gulp",
"start": "http-server dist/"

Hi,
So I should run that command? I think ive tried that before and it just did nothing. I’m on windows so that may be the issue, should i put my directory as the pattrn folder?

Hi benji,

From what I understood, that package is meant to be deployed to Netlify.
From their side they will launch those commands automatically (I presume)

I actually just arrived yesterday on that repo.
I noticed that all javascript dependancies are outdated as well.
Thats why running the commands I mentioned above directly against this repo will fail without having "manually" updated those libraries.

How do you deploy the package to Netlify? Appologies for the basic q but am using this for a project n struggling to start
