Introduction
Seeds is a full-stack JavaScript framework utilizing Ember/Ember-Data, Sails, and Semantic-UI. It currently requires io.js 2+ It has been tested on node v0.12.0+ and io.js 2+. It was built with the Soil Cli framework, a tool for building CLI tools with the ES6 syntax. Seeds uses babel to transpile into ES5.
If you've already got io.js or node installed all you need to do to download Seeds is to install it globally via NPM.
If you don't have io.js or node installed we recommend using NVM to handle your io.js/node installations.
