npm install etc...

then try hitting up this url in your browser:

http://0.0.0.0:4000/math?math=++1+%2B++%5Cfrac%7Bq%5E2%7D%7B%281-q%29%7D%2B%5Cfrac%7Bq%5E6%7D%7B%281-q%29%281-q%5E2%29%7D%2B%5Ccdots+%3D+%5Cprod_%7Bj%3D0%7D%5E%7B%5Cinfty%7D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B%281-q%5E%7B5j%2B2%7D%29%281-q%5E%7B5j%2B3%7D%29%7D

...and you should see something like this:

If the install fails

You might have trouble installing this on OS X Mavericks with a failure todo with node-gyp. If this affects you then do the following:

# Find out what path xcodebuild is at (which xcodebuild)
sudo mv /usr/bin/xcodebuild /usr/bin/xcodebuild.old

# Make a new file at /usr/bin/xcodebuild with the following contents:

#!/bin/bash

exit 0

# Now try npm install again...

Is it green?

Hopefully/probably? You can keep an eye on Travis stuff here:
