+# Disjoint / Split mode
+#
+#   Run KPI in 2 separate parts, one for frontend and one for backend,
+#   so the frontend and backend can be on different git branches.
+#
+# Run this script with two parameters:
+#
+#   split-frontend.sh  -b <backend_dir>  -f <frontend_dir>
+#
+# This will:
+#
+#   - Copy webpack-stats.json output from the frontend to the backend
+#   - Re-copy continually (watch for changes to the frontend) until ^C.
+#
+# Before running, you'll need to do these steps manually:
+#
+#   1. Clone kpi in two different locations.
+#   2. From <backend_dir>, start your backend server
+#   3. From <frontend_dir>, start the frontend in watch mode (npm run watch)
