DesignSnapper is a light-weight web app for monitoring changes to web pages over time.

Built with Django and Python. Uses Compass, Sass and CoffeeScript.

• Install BeautifulSoup

    easy_install BeautifulSoup
  

• Install mysql

    easy_install pymysql
  

OR just download the latest from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/

• Install Macports.

• Install Ruby (but you should already have it)

• Install Sass and Compass.

    gem install sass
    gem install compass
  

• Install CoffeeScript dependencies

    sudo port install nodejs
    node -v
  
    sudo chmod -R g+w /opt/local/
    curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh
  
    npm install coffee-script
    npm install jitter
  

That second part is kinda a pain in the butt, but it's a cool little language.

• Clone the repo:

    git clone git@github.com:hijonathan/designsnapper.git
  

• Boot the server

    python manage.py runserver [port]
  

If you're running OS X and have a virtual machine (e.g. Parallels/VMWare) that you'd like to use as well, use this to boot the server instead:

    python manage.py runserver [port]:0.0.0.0
