This tutorial is intended to explain how to download and install Genome Maps. To learn how to clone and build Genome Maps please visit README

Getting Genome Maps

You can get Genome Maps software in two different ways:

You can download a built version packaged in a tar.gz from GitHub releases. This is the recommended way for using stable releases. or, you can download source code by cloning the repository and following the README documentation to build Genome Maps, this is useful for testing or trying the last features from the development branch of Genome Maps, notice you should not use this for production.

To clone and build Genome Maps from sources you will need Git and Node.js, npm, bower and grunt. After executing the grunt command, Genome Maps will be built in the build folder and it should contain the same files and folders that the built versions at GitHub releases

Runing Genome Maps

You need a web server in order to run Genome Maps. The easiest way to make it run is to put the genome-maps build folder in the web server folder and open a new browser window.
