Requirements

To run and use Orion there are a few of minimum requirements you'll need to accomplish:

  • Install Node (includes NPM). We recommend installing the LTS (long-term support) version (or later) to take advantage of the latest functionality. If you are in a Windows system install, Chocolately is recommended as a package manager.

  • Install Yarn. Yarn is not required but its usage is highly recommended instead of using npm CLI.

Knowledge

Orion assumes some minimum knowledge in modern web development:

  • JavaScript (EcmaScript 2015 and above)

  • HTML5

  • CSS3

And, as Orion is based on two main libraries:

  • React

  • Redux

It would be great if you already have some experience using them.
