@roo2 I'm posting this from the dokieli gitter chat, can you take a look?

in tab 2 (must be in project directory)

npm run ipfs-local

is unclear to me.

$ npm run ipfs-local

[email protected] ipfs-local /var/www/aletheia-app ./scripts/ipfs-local.sh

Initializing daemon... Error: no IPFS repo found in .ipfs-develop. please run: 'ipfs init'

Not sure what to do after ipfs init It gives me an /ipfs/... path but how do i use that? Manually creating .ipfs-develop in the same directory as the git clone didn't help.
