Start by cloning this repository to your local machine. This was developed using NodeJS version 9.11.1 and NPM version 5.6.0, so these should be considered when running the software. Additionally, those looking to run this should realize that it was developed for use on a Qualcomm DragonBoard410c, with a pre-installed debian-variant operating system (linaro). With these considerations underway, one can install the dependent node packages using npm i while in the main directory of the newly-cloned repository. The software can be run by invoking Node through a command such as node index.js.
