Permission denied when trying to build Dojo

I got this permission denied error when I'm trying to build Dojo on both Mac and Linux. Not sure what I did wrong.

Hi Xianyi! Thanks for letting us know about this issue, I'll look into it this week and try to fix it

Julia packages when installed via Pkg.add or ] add are installed in a readonly directory. I'm pretty sure that's the issue. I would recommend deving the package for running examples.

This worked for me. For those that might not know that deving is:
] dev Dojo

This is then located in ~/.julia/dev/Dojo and the permissions are such that writing is possible
