1. Clone the Link-Rel-Patch repo into your local development environment, within your WordPress installation's plugins/ directory: git clone https://github.com/UCF/Link-Rel-Patch.git

2. cd into the new Link-Rel-Patch directory, and run npm install to install required packages for development into node_modules/ within the repo

3. Optional: If you'd like to enable BrowserSync for local development, or make other changes to this project's default gulp configuration, copy gulp-config.template.json, make any desired changes, and save as gulp-config.json.

   To enable BrowserSync, set sync to true and assign syncTarget the base URL of a site on your local WordPress instance that will use this plugin, such as http://localhost/wordpress/my-site/. Your syncTarget value will vary depending on your local host setup.

   The full list of modifiable config values can be viewed in gulpfile.js (see config variable).

4. Run gulp default to process front-end assets.

5. If you haven't already done so, create a new WordPress site on your development environment to test this plugin against.
