## Running Another App

The following 3 steps are required if your app is written in vanilla JS (not using TypeScript):

1. Make sure you have Typescript installed:
```bash
npm install typescript -g
```
2. Go to `tns-core-modules` folder in NativeScript source
```bash
cd <path to tns-core-modules>
# Example: cd ~/work/NativeScript/tns-core-modules
```
3. Compile `tns-core-modules` to JavaScript:
```bash
tsc
```
Alternatively, you can leave the compiler watching for changes in `tns-core-modules`:
```bash
tsc -w
```

For application written in TypeScript, the following steps will suffice:

1. Open the app, where you will use the module from the repository in the console.
2. Add the `tns-core-modules` in the application via:
```bash
