Hello Val Ery,
Thanks for the reply, but I was specifically looking for an answer that involved the programs I had mentioned.
I’m going to give it a go over the weekend, and I’m fairly confident I will get it working.
My main concern is the fact that the dist folder is deleted and recreated with every Foundation Build, and if it is mapped to the remote server, I’m not entirely sure what will happen during this process.
Thanks for the advice though, as I can always use your method as a fallback.
Thanks,
Matthew

Hello,
I have resolved this... sort of...
What I did was:
1. npm uninstall wowjs --save;
2. In default.html I linked to the CDN's of animate.css and wow;
3. In default.html I added
var wow = new WOW();

wow.init();
inside <script> tags; and
4. I added a class of, for example, "wow fadeInUp" to my desired element.
The reason I said I have sort of resolved this is because I was able to achieve the effect I was after, I just didn't use Motion UI to achieve it.
P.S. Adding the JavaScript in app.js doesn't work, or didn't for me anyway.
Thanks,
Matthew

Hi Rafi,
Thanks for your replies. I'll hopefully get round to trying your suggestion tomorrow. If it works I'll mark this post as answered.
Thanks,

Hi Rafi,
Yup, I just ended up creating it manually.
I had read this article and tried what it had suggested but it didn't work.
Thanks,

Hello Konstantin,
In my opinion, I don't think there is an easy way.
If you do an npm install hwthorn/parallaxify --save, I'm guessing it will throw you an error? I found that I can install Plugins no problem so long as there is a package.json file present in their associated GitHub.
Thanks,
Matthew

@Russel Spencer,
I am also facing the same issues. Although, I don't have the luxury of there being a CDN for the small jQuery Plugins I am looking to use. Any suggestions for me?
@Vaughn D. Taylor,
Just something new to learn... lol.
Thanks,
Matthew

@Rafi Benkual,
Thanks for the response Rafi.
So what you're saying is that instead of, for example, doing bower install typed.js --save, I would do npm install typed.js --save (or --save-dev?)? Then similarly, add the path to the .js file in config.yml?
Thanks,
Matthew

Interesting.
Would you mind posting a screenshot of what is in your bower_components folder? And also a screenshot of your config.yml?

I don't mean what version of the CLI or NPM, I mean what version of Foundation. I can't be 100% sure, as I have only just updated, but I think webpack replaced Bower. Again, I have no idea. Just going by the differences I'm seeing in the folder structure. So it's my thinking that if you are getting a bower_components folder, then you aren't on 6.4.

Check what version you are using; in Command Line, type "foundation -v". I'm on 6.4, and definitely no bower_components folder. I can still do "bower install typed.js --save", etc., but so far can't find a way to edit the .yml file to get Plugins to work.
