Style Guides

File naming and location

• Prefer CamelCase js and jsx file names
• Prefer lower case one word directory names
• Keep stylesheet files close to components
• Component's stylesheet file name should match component name

Js & Jsx

We are using Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide with some modifications (see .eslintrc). Please run eslint in the working directory before committing your changes and make sure you didn't introduce any new styling issues.

CSS & SCSS

If component requires a css rule, please use its uppercase name for the class, e.g. "Header" class for the header's root div. We adhere to BEM methodology with exception for Foundation classes, here is an example for the Header component:

<!-- Block -->
<ul class="Header">
  ...
  <!-- Element -->
  <li class="Header__menu-item">Menu Item 1</li>
  <!-- Element with modifier -->
  <li class="Header__menu-item--selected">Element with modifier</li>
</ul>

Production

If you want to test it locally in production mode, just run the following commands:

npm run build
npm run prod

or via pm2:

npm run build
npm -i -g pm2 # one time
pm2 start config/process.json
