PhyloCanvas is now built using Grunt and tested using Mocha, chai and expect.js

To build PhyloCanvas, after cloning

npm install
bower install //currently there are no dependencies so this is redundant
grunt test
grunt build //or grunt serve to run the demo locally

To start using PhyloCanvas :

// Construct tree object
var phylocanvas = new PhyloCanvas.Tree('phylocanvas');

// load tree via AJAX and render using default params - NB: uses AJAX
phylocanvas.load('./tree.nwk');
