Libera Chat's website

Style guide

Content

  • Use british english
  • Channel names, channel modes, IRC verbs, IRC commands should be escaped as code, for example: /join #libera

  • In examples, mark required arguments with <> and optional arguments with []
  • Lines should be no longer than 80 characters

Code

  • 2 spaces of indentation in code
  • Be mindful about making the site accessible, to normal users, to people with screen readers, and to people with text-only browsers.
  • For CSS
    • Prefer logical properties (for example, margin-inline-start rather than margin-left)
    • In general, lengths should be defined in rem units
    • CSS that is absolutely necessary to generate the layout should go in the appropriate inlined css, other css should be loaded separately

    • You probably don't need JavaScript
    • Format JS with standard.js
  • For HTML
    • Prefer elements with semantic meaning (for example, <main>, <article>)
