The Final Countdown uses Grunt and Bower with convenient methods for developing the plugin. It's how we compile our code and run tests. To get started install NodeJS, Bower, and then run some Grunt/Bower commands.

bower install
npm install
grunt test  # Lint code and run test suite
grunt build # Generate the release files (dev, min and zip)
grunt       # Watch for updates than test and build

This plugin is tested with QUnit, under jQuery 1.7 up to 3.1, Bootstrap 3.0 and RequireJS.
