Build

The code of the JSON Editor is located in the folder ./src. To build jsoneditor:

  • Install dependencies:

    npm install
    
  • Build JSON Editor:

    npm run build
    

    This will generate the files ./jsoneditor.js, ./jsoneditor.css, and
    minified versions in the root of the project.

  • To rebuild the assets (not necessary):

    npm run build-assets
    

    This will build Ace editor, and then generates necessary ace editor files in the folder ./asset/ace, and jsonlint in the folder ./asset/jsonlint.
