How do I run my own bower server

I'd like to run my own bower server to start sharing a couple of internal modules across teams. I'm having a very hard time finding the information for running your own server. On the bower.io site there is this line

N.B. To run your own Bower Endpoint for custom packages that are behind a firewall, you can use a simple implementation of the Bower Server.

With a link to Bower Server

Do I simply clone that repo and 'run it'? I'm not a ruby guy at all so I'm not even sure what run it means.

That repo is a Sinatra app, so you need to git clone it, run bundle install in its directory, and run 'ruby application.rb`. Comment on this answer if you need more details.

There is also a node server, which I have never used and cannot comment on its quality - https://npmjs.org/package/bower-server

I guess there is a PHP one also - https://github.com/indieisaconcept/slim-bower-server
