Developer guide: getting your environment set up

1. Make sure you have node installed with a version at least 5.5.0.
2. Run npm install -g gulp to install gulp.
3. Fork the angular/material2 repo.
4. Clone your fork. Recommendation: name your git remotes upstream for angular/material2 and <your-username> for your fork. Also see the team git shortcuts.
5. From the root of the project, run npm install.

To build the components in dev mode, run gulp build:components. To build the components in release mode, run gulp build:release
