The expected behavior
To be able to run the dev server or supply docs in the readme on how to add API key. Currently, we are developing on a fork.

Steps to reproduce
Running clean from 10.12

npm install --legacy-peer-deps
npm download-webviewer
npm start

hey @arcuo,

Thanks for reaching out.

So generally the flow for working with this repo if you choose to fork it, is to build the UI from here and then use that in your project that has the WebViewer Core files. That way you can instantiate WebViewer using the constructor, which takes a licenseKey parameter. (some users use symlinks as well)

However, I can understand that being cumbersome.

What I can suggest is to tweak this in your fork.

In this object with the default parameters, add a licenseKey option.

licenseKey: 'Put the key here',

You can get a key from https://dev.apryse.com/

This way while you are doing dev work you can avoid the error message - just remember to remove this once you build the UI and copy it over to your project.

Let me know if this works out for you.
