title: npm install doesnt create dist folder
body: <p>I am following this tutorial <a href="http://grafana.org/blog/2016/04/08/clock-plugin-p1.html" rel="noreferrer">link</a> to create a grafana plugin.</p>
  
  <p>But when I copy this code <a href="https://github.com/grafana/clock-panel/tree/6a9d0d625e3757582ce30f0b5c7e784a2b0e978b" rel="noreferrer">link</a> from the tutorial to my test server(without the <code>dist/</code> folder) and run <code>npm install</code> npm doesn’t create a new <code>dist/</code> folder instead it creates a <code>node_modules</code> folder.</p>
  
  <p>Am I missing a step here or am I understanding something incorrect? Since I expected that command to create a <code>dist/</code> folder out of the files in the <code>src/</code> folder?</p>
  
  <p>The grunt file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>module.exports = (grunt) =&gt; {
    require('load-grunt-tasks')(grunt);
  
    grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-execute');
    grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-clean');
  
    grunt.initConfig({
  
      clean: ['dist'],
  
      copy: {
        src_to_dist: {
          cwd: 'src',
          expand: true,
          src: ['**/*', '!**/*.js', '!**/*.scss'],
          dest: 'dist'
        },
        pluginDef: {
          expand: true,
          src: [ 'plugin.json', 'README.md' ],
          dest: 'dist',
        }
      },
  
      watch: {
        rebuild_all: {
          files: ['src/**/*', 'plugin.json'],
          tasks: ['default'],
          options: {spawn: false}
        },
      },
  
      babel: {
        options: {
          sourceMap: true,
          presets: ['es2015'],
          plugins: ['transform-es2015-modules-systemjs', 'transform-es2015-for-of'],
        },
        dist: {
          files: [{
            cwd: 'src',
            expand: true,
            src: ['*.js'],
            dest: 'dist',
            ext: '.js'
          }]
        },
      },
  
    });
  
    grunt.registerTask('default', ['clean', 'copy:src_to_dist', 'copy:pluginDef', 'babel']);
  };
