How to get started hacking on the Makelangelo project

Thanks

Thank you to Chris Mills for contributing these instructions.

Technical Requirements

• Java Development Kit [7 or 8]
• Eclipse IDE for Java Developers (Indigo and up)*

Note If your Eclipse is older than Indigo, you still have the option of using it. You will just need to provide Maven integration via the m2e Eclipse plugin.

Steps

1. If you don’t already have it, clone the Makelangelo dev branch this project to a folder on your computer.
2. Start Eclipse, then choose File > Import > Existing projects into workspace > Select root directory > Browse > find where you cloned github/Makelangelo > Ok > uncheck "Copy projects into workspace > Finish
3. Choose Package Explorer > Right click on Makelangelo > Maven > Update project. Wait while it downloads and configures dependencies
4. Select Right click on Makelangelo > Run As > Java Application.

Makelangelo should run! Make changes to the code and run again to see the effect.
