Please ignore this post, unless you sometimes have problems running gaia on your laptop.
Gaia sometimes becomes incompatible with older B2G-Desktop versions (for instance, recently the `let` keyword was introduced). Apart from using the simulator from WebIDE, or building your own latest B2G executable from moz-central Gecko, the following is an easy way to get things working again when this happens (this is on a Macbook, but it's probably quite similar on Linux): * `node --version` or `nvm current` and make sure you have node version 4.2 * If you have previously worked with node 0.10 you may or may not need to `cd gaia && rm -r node_modules` * npm install * Make sure you have a 'DEVICE_DEBUG := 1' line in your local.mk file * cd gaia && mv firefox firefox-old && make clean && make && make mulet * Ignore the dialog for moving 'FirefoxNightly' to 'Applications' * ./firefox/Contents/MacOS/firefox-bin -profile `pwd`/profile * You should see mulet starting, with a simulated Firefox OS phone inside * Click the pointer icon to interact with it The key part here is, I guess, the easy way of getting the latest mulet by removing the ./firefox folder in your gaia repo and running `make mulet`. I only found this information by asking around (thanks, Sean Lee!), and was hesitant to add it to https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Developing_Gaia/Running_the_Gaia_codebase myself, but I thought I could at least post it to this list. :) Cheers, Michiel.
