 ## That's it
 
 Just run `engine.update(dt)` in your game loop :D
 
+## Checking it in the frontend (dev).
+
+You can link the bower package (bower.json is in `lib/serpentity/` to
+make paths cleaner), then link it again from the root directory and
+spawn a python server (`python -m SimpleHTTPServer`). The test page
+will be available in `http://localhost:8000/browser_test/`
+
+If you just want to use it, it's available as a bower package!

+
 ## TO-DO
 
 * Removing components
 * Implement the ashteroids demo (Serpentoids)
 * Actually check performance
