The list of steps I most often use to create the basic scaffolding for a new Frontend project.

Prerequisites

• node (& npm)

One-Time Steps

1. npm install -g karma-clito install globally the karma CLI

2. cd <project-folder> to enter the project folder
3. git init to initialize git
4. npm init to initialize npm
5. npm install karma --save-dev to install karma
