I'm not the most knowledgeable on what's in the source tree. Some of the stuff you need should be there already. But basically you need node.js and grunt to be installed. To use the batch file, I think you'll have to install those manually.
If you open the solution with Visual Studio 2015, Go "View->Other Windows->Task Runner Explorer", you'll se a bunch of tasks. Try running the alias called "vs". That should make everything ready for you to build within VS instead.
No, again, the batch file takes care of node, grunt and whatever else. Just let it run to the end.
If the batch file does NOT work (it needs some updates for some machines) then yes, Task Runner Explorer is great and that should help build the frontend stuff.
I've only ever seen the batch file not work or work on a box. The ones working are the ones I've manually installed them on. But I'll take your word for it. ;)
Clone Umbraco-CMS then run build fails
Hi,

Looks great. Just have patience, this can take about 10 minutes without visual feedback. Hang in there! :)

Hi,
If you do have issues then check NodeJS is on the latest LTS version.

Kind regards

If I run the build again after some time I see the following:
Then few minutes later I see it hides the node modules folder in Vs2015 and then something about the webconfig but he can't find the webconfig.
Then it closes the command prompt.
Any help here?
/Michaël
After it closes (usually when there are no errors) run the project in VS and check it out! All these messages are "normal". :)
I do see files beeing added to the build folder.
Does this means it was success even with the messages I had above?
During the build it never showed anything about copying files.

Open umbraco.sln in VS, hit F5 and see for yourself! ;-)
@Seba,
the site is running! I am now on the install page so I gues its working nicely!
Thanks for helping me out so I can start contributing!
Have a nice day
