Issues while trying to run chii locally

[JohnPaulHarold]

Hello.

I'm trying to run chii as a local server and am seeing issues.

OS: OSX.

• I've cloned both chii and depot_tools.
• added depot_tools to my PATH and validated with which gn or which gclient
• Inside of chii I cd to devtools and run gclient sync
• I then cd back to the chii cloned repo root and run npm i and then npm run build

at this point, I see errors in the terminal. It's mostly the same looking error, here's the first:

[1/3404] ACTION //front_end:integration_test_runner-gen(//build/toolchain/linux:x64)

My motivation for wanting to use chii is to help with Connected TV development, as not all devices offer chrome dev tools. I'd previously used weinre for this, but would like to move to something maintained.

Could you help advise what I'm doing wrong in the above?

Were you able to run npm install and init the depot tools with no issues?
