# Minimal setup to start a new [BEM](http://bem.info) project
This repository contains the *minimal* configuration-files and folders you will need to create a [BEM](http://bem.info) project from *scratch*.
---
## Installation Requirements:
- [node.js](http://nodejs.org/)
You may also consider [installing bem-tools locally to your environment](http://bem.info/tools/bem/installation/) for [ease of use](#an-easier-more-beautiful-way), though it is **not required**
---
## Installation:
So, how easy is it to get started with BEM? *Super easy*.
It's as easy as...
1. ›`git clone git://github.com/bem/project-stub.git`
2. ›`cd project-stub`
3. >`npm install`
4. ›`./node_modules/bem/bin/bem server`
*(hint: execute the above commands in your terminal)*
Now that `bem server` is running, check it out:
````
Navigate to: http://localhost:8080/desktop.bundles/index/index.html
````
(here, have a link: [http://localhost:8080/desktop.bundles/index/index.html](http://localhost:8080/desktop.bundles/index/index.html))
---
**That's it, it's that simple. Congratulations, your BEM project is already underway!**
---
### Was that too easy?
Here's the replay... that `bem server` command will:
1. Install a **local copy** of all required dependencies from [npm](http://npmjs.org/) into the `./node_modules` directory. (specifically: [bem-tools](http://github.com/bem/bem-tools))
2. Start a local `bem server` on port `8080`.
#### Note:
What do we mean by "a **local copy** of all required dependencies"?
Well, when you run the `bem make` / `bem server` command for the first time, we install all of the required dependencies ([bem-tools](http://github.com/bem/bem-tools))
to the `./node_modules` directory within the **local project directory**. This is *not* the same thing as
[installing bem-tools locally to your environment](http://bem.info/tools/bem/installation/) - which, if you haven't
done already, we strongly suggest that you do. This is by far the easiest, quickest way to use
[bem-tools](http://github.com/bem/bem-tools) in [a more beautiful way](#an-easier-more-beautiful-way).
---
## Usage:
### Start the Server:
› ./node_modules/bem/bin/bem server
This is the ugly way to run the `bem server` command. If you think it's ugly too and wish for [a better way](#an-easier-more-beautiful-way) keep reading...
### An Easier, More Beautiful Way:
Once you have either (a) [fixed your PATH environment variable](#fix-your-path-environment-variable), or (b)
[properly installed bem-tools to your local environment](http://bem.info/tools/bem/installation/).
You may now, more elegantly, start your `bem server` by running:
› bem server
---
### Stopping the Server:
Stopping the server is also easy:
[ctrl] + [c]
Pressing `[ctrl] + [c]` while the terminal is your active window will stop the server.
---
### Fix your PATH environment variable:
For a more permanent way to "easily" use the *local-to-this-project's* installation of
[bem-tools](http://github.com/bem/bem-tools) all you must do is ensure that the **path** to the `bem` executable
(`./node_modules/.bin`) is included in your `PATH` environment variable.
> export PATH=./node_modules/.bin:$PATH
Optionally you may also add `export PATH=PATH_TO_PROJECT_DIRECTORY/node_modules/.bin:$PATH` to your `.profile`
(obviously replacing `PATH_TO_PROJECT_DIRECTORY` with the actual path to your project)

[BEM](http://bem.info) is an abbreviation for Block-Element-Modifier. [BEM](http://bem.info) is a way to write code which is easy to support and develop.
