To run the examples, go to their directories, install and start, e.g:
cd examples/core/instancing
yarn
yarn start
This will start a local development server and open the page in your browser. The example code will be in app.js in the example directly will automatically refresh the page.
Note that luma.gl’s master branch is its development branch and is often in flux. To ensure you’re working with stable code, simply check out one of the release branches, e.g.
git checkout 7.2-release
