Run yarn from the root of the monorepo.

yarn start

Note: The console may output warnings. You can submit a PR to fix them or just ignore them since they aren't breaking anything.

yarn build

Built files will be output to ./dist

Variable	Default	Description
`NODE_ENV`	`development`	`yarn start` always sets this to `development` and `yarn build` will always set this to `production`. You should not have to modify this variable
`PUBLIC_URL`	`/`	The root url of the site (only applies to production builds)
`REACT_APP_HTTP_PROVIDER`		By default, the app will use the Livepeer testnet provider (`https://ethrpc-testnet.livepeer.org`), but this option allows you to specify a custom Ethereum http provider. You may want to use one of the following: infura.io - `https://<network>.infura.io/<your-token>`local geth/testrpc - `http://localhost:8545`
`REACT_APP_STREAM_ROOT_URL`		The root http url from which broadcaster m3u8 files will be served

add ?source=<STREAM_ROOT_URL>/stream to the player url

Example: https://media.livepeer.org/embed/0x0ddb225031ccb58ff42866f82d907f7766899014?source=http://localhost:8935/stream

pull the local current stream. the local livepeer node has to have -currentManifest flag on.

go to http://localhost:3000/channels/local . this sets the source to http://localhost:8935/stream/current.m3u8
