Answer 2

If you want to use AlloyUI in your project, download it from Alloy website and include it in your app as explained.

If you want to customize or play with AlloyUI source, you have to follow the setup instructions on the Github repo. Make soure you've cloned the repository first, then cd {cloned_repo} and run npm install (and so on as described).
