Currently in development phase, no release builds. Check out DOCS.md for info about the file/folder hierarchy and their jobs.
Only tested for Windows, no plans to support Mac or Linux by default, if anything is broken on these platforms (likely), open an issue and I will look into it.

Written from scratch (except npm dependencies and a few copy-pasted code samples). ~ iairu
