Examples

Build your custom handsontable Community Edition package (from the handsontable remote repository)

$ hot-builder build -o hot-dist

Or build your custom handsontable Community Edition package using a local directory

$ hot-builder build -i path-to-your-handsontable-copy/ -o hot-dist

After executing command and selecting plugins, the builder automatically resolves all plugins and external libraries before building a package in the hot-dist directory.

If it works correctly, you should see something like:
