### Building Leaflet from the Source
Leaflet build system is powered by the [Node.js](http://nodejs.org) platform and Jake, JSHint and UglifyJS libraries, which install easily and work well across all major platforms. Here are the steps to install it:
1. [Download and install Node](http://nodejs.org)
2. Run the following commands in the command line:
<pre><code class="no-highlight">npm install -g jake
npm install jshint
npm install uglify-js
</code></pre>
