What is the best way to setup cappuccino for local development? I
have a forked repository but I guess what I don't understand is what I
need to do when I make a change. Do I just rake release and have my
project use a linked copy of the frameworks? Is is that easy?

Sorry if this is a stupid question.

That's basically correct - whenever you do rake release or rake debug,
it builds your frameworks into the directory specified in $CAPP_BUILD.
Your application should link to this directory. Though from your
last email, it seems like you are working with the jake branch? In
that case, you need to do jake release/jake debug (after making sure
to checkout the jake branch). Also, the first time you clone the
repository, make sure you have the correct tools installed (using rake
install/jake install).

Yeah, rake is a habit, meant jake.

you can use capp gen -l -f to generate a symlinked frameworks folder
in the current directory to make this easier

you don't explicitly need to jake release and jake debug. you can, for
example, only build debug while you are developing.

Interesting, I didn't think of that, might be easier, thanks Ross.
