Bower package does not contain dist directory

See original GitHub issue

Bower package does not contain dist directory. If this is intentional, the readme is now incorrect as it does not specify a build step.

Also, attempting to build the project on my system via npm run build results in:

Tell the author that this fails on your system: npm ERR! rimraf ./dist

OS X 10.12.3 Node 7.4.0 NPM 4.1.1
