3. Optional: Set up for Development
If you want to contribute to ForSure or use its advanced features, you might need to install dependencies:
bash
# If there's a package.json file
npm install
# Or if you're using yarn
yarn install
Verifying Installation
To verify that ForSure is properly installed, you can try creating a simple .forsure file and processing it:
bash
# Create a test file
echo "root:
- test.txt" > test.forsure
# Process the file (command may vary based on implementation)
./forsure generate test.forsure --output ./test-output
If the installation is successful, this should create a test.txt file in the test-output directory.
