Prerequisites

Despite BlurAdmin can be run without any development experience, it would be much easier if you already know something about it. In general following instruction do allow to run local copy by complete newbie, but it doesn't answer questions that can arise in the process of installation.

Install tools

If you don't havee any of these tools installed already, you will need to:

• Download and install git
• Download and install nodejs https://nodejs.org

git clone https://github.com/akveo/blur-admin.git
