Getting Started

1. Clone it
   • git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jmbeach/TumblrSlideshow.git
     • Note: --depth flag just makes it not get everything so it clones faster. If you think you'll need more of the history, just remove the flag
2. Switch to the new folder
   • cd TumblrSlideShow
3. Install dependencies
   • npm install
4. Add a file to the config folder named default.json. The contents should look something like the following:

{
	"Tumblr": {
	"appKey": "<your-app-key>",
	"appSecret": "<your-app-secret>"
	},
	"Debug": {
	"port":<localhost-port-to-debug-on>
	}
}

• You will need to have your own Tumblr app-key and app-secret. This is not hard to do, just go to Tumblr's app registration page and create a new app with any name you like, some sort of description and a callback url of http:localhost/auth/tumblr/callback and you'll be all set.
• After you create it, you can view it's app key (really called OAuth Consumer Key) and it's secret key here.

4. Finally, run node server.js to start serving the app
