This article is part of a series. Check out the full series: Part 1 . After reading the Part 2, you will be able to deploy the bip39seed project and run it through a local http web server.

Bip39seed is a static Single-page application (SPA) it do not need to make server requests when the user navigates. However, the application still needs a server to provide the initial files for the application to render. A static site is the simplest kind of website you can build. Static sites are written in HTML, CSS and sometimes little JavaScript. They are stored in the filesystem of a server and are delivered to the user exactly as stored.

Firstly you need NodeJS to install lite-server, it is a lightweight development web server with support for Single Page Apps (SPAs).

  1. Nodejs. download from : https://nodejs.org/en/download/
  2. Git. download from: https://git-scm.com/downloads

  4. Use the commands
git clone https://github.com/t-palmer/www-lite-server.git
cd www-lite-server
npm install

Click on https://github.com/orfeomorello/bip39seed and then click on the green Clone or Download button. You can unzip the file in www-lite-server folder or you can configure the server Base Directory in bs-config file and then you can install lite-server in one place and point it at any other project.
