Getting Started

If you're comfortable getting up and running from a git clone, this method is for you.

If you clone the GitLab repository, you will need to build a number of assets using grunt.

Quickstart:

  1. npm install -g grunt-cli bower
  2. npm install
  3. grunt build
  4. grunt start

If you encounter trouble with the above method, you can try:

  1. npm install -g bower grunt-cli (Linux: you may need to run with sudo)
  2. cd desktop
  3. npm install
  4. bower install
  5. grunt lang
  6. grunt nodewebkit
  7. grunt css
  8. grunt start

Optionally, you may simply run ./make_popcorn.sh if you are on a linux or mac based operating system.

Full instructions & troubleshooting tips can be found in the Contributing Guide

Versioning

For transparency and insight into our release cycle, and for striving to maintain backward compatibility, Popcorn Time will be maintained according to the Semantic Versioning guidelines as much as possible.

Releases will be numbered with the following format:

<major>.<minor>.<patch>-<build>

Constructed with the following guidelines:

  • A new major release indicates a large change where backwards compatibility is broken.
  • A new minor release indicates a normal change that maintains backwards compatibility.
  • A new patch release indicates a bugfix or small change which does not affect compatibility.
  • A new build release indicates this is a pre-release of the version.
