Node is required for local development. We recommend using a Node version manager (nvm for example) to ensure a stable development environment is used. Below are the required node / npm versions:
"node": ">18.13.0",
"npm": ">8.19.3"
In your working directory, open terminal and paste the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/WebKit/Speedometer.git
cd Speedometer
npm install
- In your terminal run:
PORT=8900 npm run dev # Passing the env var PORT is optional
- Open your browser of choice and navigate to http://127.0.0.1:8900
Speedometer uses http-server, which is a static HTTP server. Meaning it does not provide hot-reloading. By default, the dev script disables caching and local changes can be viewed by simply refreshing your browser window. Additional options of the http-server can be found here.
