How to set up Objective-J and Cappuccino

Question

I am trying to start development in Objective-J but I am completely lost as to how to set it up. The documentation about setting it up, didn't really help me. I am very familiar with web development and Objective-C so I can write the programs if I can get everything set up. Could somebody please give me step-by-step directions as to how to set it up on my (shared) server?

This little "tutorial" didn't help me out at all.

Go to the Cappuccino download page and download the starter package. Unzip it into a folder your choice. Congratulations, you now have your first Cappuccino app ready to run! If you are using Safari you can open up index-debug.html right away and start trying out the starter app. (If you use other browsers like Chrome and Firefox they might not allow you to run a web app from a file:// URL. Instead you'll need to start up a web server and surf to the index-debug.html file through the server.)

Then you can start to edit the sample application right away and explore.

Once you are ready to learn more, take a look at these Cappuccino tutorials and instructions. They are still under development - we're not quite there with our new site yet - but they are definitely more up to date.
