Bread and Roses Presents

This project is being built by a team at Blueprint, a student organization at the University of California, Berkeley building software pro bono for nonprofits.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

Check your installation of node and pnpm:

node -v
pnpm -v

We strongly recommend using a Node version manager like nvm (for Mac) or nvm-windows (for Windows) to install Node.js. If you don't plan on switching between different Node versions, you can alternatively get a prebuilt installer from the Node.js website for an easier approach. Make sure to get Node version 18 and up, the latest LTS version should be sufficient.

After installing Node, you most likely have npm installed as well (check by running npm -v). If you have npm installed, simply run npm install -g pnpm to install pnpm. If your command line does not recognize npm as a command, refer to this article to troubleshoot.

Additional resources:

• Downloading and installing Node.js and npm
• Installing pnpm without npm
