Pa-au-md-tooltip NPM

`pa-au-md-tooltip` (usable but still under construction)

This project is bootstrapped by aurelia-cli.

This Aurelia plugin project has a built-in dev app (with CLI built-in bundler and RequireJS) to simplify development.

The local src/ folder, is the source code for the plugin.
The local dev-app/ folder, is the code for the dev app, just like a normal app bootstrapped by aurelia-cli.
You can use normal au run and au test in development just like developing an app.
You can use aurelia-testing to test your plugin, just like developing an app.
To ensure compatibility to other apps, always use PLATFORM.moduleName() wrapper in files inside src/. You don't need to use the wrapper in dev-app/ folder as CLI built-in bundler supports module name without the wrapper.

Note aurelia-cli doesn't provide a plugin skeleton with Webpack setup (not yet), but this plugin can be consumed by any app using Webpack, or CLI built-in bundler, or jspm.
