# Roku Hello World

This is a barebones scaffold for writing Roku applications.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js (minimum version v10.0.0)
• Yarn (minimum version v1.22.0)
• Create a .env file in the root of the project with the following properties:

ROKU_DEV_TARGET=192.168.1.123
ROKU_DEV_USERNAME=rokudev
ROKU_DEV_PASSWORD=rokudev

See the Roku Setup Guide for details on enabling the Roku developer mode.

And finally, if you are using Visual Studio Code then install the Brightscript Langugage plugin:

• $ code --install-extension celsoaf.brightscript or https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=celsoaf.brightscript#review-details

• Install the project dependencies:

  $ yarn

Deploying the Application

This starter supports two ways of deploying the application

1. $ gulp deploy
2. In VSC, use the "Deploy & Debug" Run command. This method supports interactive breakpoints as standard.
