## Installation
Use [ao-cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@autonomousorganization/ao-cli) to install.
If installing manually:
```
cd ~
git clone http://git.coalitionofinvisiblecolleges.org:3009/autonomousorganization/ao-server.git
cd ao-server
npm i --force
```
(`--force` is necessary temporarily because we are using a development version of TypeScript to make compiling simpler using a new feature.)
