Coding Guidelines

Branching

  • Each new technical task should have its own feature branch with a short name describing the new feature. The format of the branch name should be in snake case, such as add_backend_story_model.
  • When a task is complete the developer should issue a pull request for that feature branch. That developer cannot merge the pull request until they get at least three thumbs ups from other developers in the class.

Steps to take

  1. Take the ticket from the whiteboard and move it to the "In Progress" column.
  2. Make sure you're on the master branch.
  3. Make sure you have the latest version of the code: git pull origin master
  4. Create a new branch (you should be on master when you do this): git checkout -b branch_name_goes_here
  5. Do the development work that needs to be done for that ticket.
  6. Test that the feature I implemented actually works.
  7. Check the coding guidelines to make sure you meet all of them.
  8. Double check the code changes you've made: git status, git diff
  9. git add ., git commit ...
  10. Run a git pull origin master to ensure that you have the latest code.
  11. Re-test your code.
  12. Push your code git push origin branch_name_goes_here
  13. Create your pull request, leave a comment explaining what you did.
  14. Move ticket to PR column.
  15. After fixing any issues and getting three thumbs up, merge pull request into master.
  16. Move ticket to completed column.
  17. Tell everyone to run a git pull origin master.
  18. Switch back to your master branch: git checkout master
  19. Pull newest changes from master: git pull origin master
  20. Rinse and repeat

Code Format

  • White space should be in tabs, not spaces.

Components

  • There should be one component for each page.

HTML

  • Each page component should be a <section>.
  • HTML attributes should use double quotes.

CSS

  • We will use the Skeleton CSS grid framework. It is already installed. Layout elements should use the Skeleton grid system whenever possible.
  • CSS class names should use dashes, for example .story-box.
  • Each page component should have its own unique CSS class on the <section> element.
  • CSS that is specific only to a component should live in a scss include file prefixed with an _ that is imported into main.scss, such as _home-page.scss.
  • Global styles (styles that should be applied to multiple pages) live in _global.scss

JavaScript

  • No code should have eslint errors.
  • Strings should use single quotes.
  • Our router is using the more modern HTML5 push state so urls need not be prefixed with a #.
