Basic Rules

  • Only include one React component per file.
  • Always use JSX syntax.
  • Do not use React.createElement unless you're initializing the server from a file that is not JSX.

Mixins

Why? Mixins introduce implicit dependencies, cause name clashes, and cause snowballing complexity. Most use cases for mixins can be accomplished in better ways via components, higher-order components, or utility modules.

Naming

  • Extensions: Use .jsx extension for React components.

  • Filename: Use PascalCase for filenames. E.g., ReservationCard.jsx.

  • Reference Naming: Use PascalCase for React components and camelCase for their instances. eslint: react/jsx-pascal-case

    // bad
    import reservationCard from './ReservationCard';
    
    // good
    import ReservationCard from './ReservationCard';
    
    // bad
    const ReservationItem = <ReservationCard />;
    
    // good
    const reservationItem = <ReservationCard />;
  • Component Naming: Use the filename as the component name. For example, ReservationCard.jsx should have a reference name of ReservationCard. However, for root components of a directory, use index.jsx as the filename and use the directory name as the component name:

    // bad
    import Footer from './Footer/Footer';
    
    // bad
    import Footer from './Footer/index';
    
    // good
    import Footer from './Footer';
  • Higher-order Component Naming: Use a composite of the higher-order component's name and the passed-in component's name as the displayName on the generated component. For example, the higher-order component withFoo(), when passed a component Bar should produce a component with a displayName of withFoo(Bar).

    Why? A component's displayName may be used by developer tools or in error messages, and having a value that clearly expresses this relationship helps people understand what is happening.

    // bad
    export default function withFoo(WrappedComponent) {
      return function WithFoo(props) {
        return <WrappedComponent {...props} foo />;
      }
    }
    
    // good
    export default function withFoo(WrappedComponent) {
      function WithFoo(props) {
        return <WrappedComponent {...props} foo />;
      }
    
      const wrappedComponentName = WrappedComponent.displayName
        || WrappedComponent.name
        || 'Component';
    
      WithFoo.displayName = `withFoo(${wrappedComponentName})`;
      return WithFoo;
    }
  • Props Naming: Avoid using DOM component prop names for different purposes.

    Why? People expect props like style and className to mean one specific thing. Varying this API for a subset of your server makes the code less readable and less maintainable, and may cause bugs.

    // bad
    <MyComponent style="fancy" />
    
    // bad
    <MyComponent className="fancy" />
    
    // good
    <MyComponent variant="fancy" />

Declaration

  • Do not use displayName for naming components. Instead, name the component by reference.

    // bad
    export default React.createClass({
      displayName: 'ReservationCard',
      // stuff goes here
    });
    
    // good
    export default class ReservationCard extends React.Component {
    }

Quotes

  • Always use double quotes (") for JSX attributes, but single quotes (') for all other JS. eslint: jsx-quotes

    Why? Regular HTML attributes also typically use double quotes instead of single, so JSX attributes mirror this convention.

    // bad
    <Foo bar='bar' />
    
    // good
    <Foo bar="bar" />
    
    // bad
    <Foo style={{ left: "20px" }} />
    
    // good
    <Foo style={{ left: '20px' }} />

Spacing

  • Always include a single space in your self-closing tag. eslint: no-multi-spaces, react/jsx-tag-spacing

    // bad
    <Foo/>
    
    // very bad
    <Foo                 />
    
    // bad
    <Foo
     />
    
    // good
    <Foo />
  • Do not pad JSX curly braces with spaces. eslint: react/jsx-curly-spacing

    // bad
    <Foo bar={ baz } />
    
    // good
    <Foo bar={baz} />

Tags

  • Always self-close tags that have no children. eslint: react/self-closing-comp

    // bad
    <Foo variant="stuff"></Foo>
    
    // good
    <Foo variant="stuff" />
  • If your component has multi-line properties, close its tag on a new line. eslint: react/jsx-closing-bracket-location

    // bad
    <Foo
      bar="bar"
      baz="baz" />
    
    // good
    <Foo
      bar="bar"
      baz="baz"
    />

Methods

  • Use arrow functions to close over local variables.

    function ItemList(props) {
      return (
        <ul>
          {props.items.map((item, index) => (
            <Item
              key={item.key}
              onClick={() => doSomethingWith(item.name, index)}
            />
          ))}
        </ul>
      );
    }
  • Bind event handlers for the render method in the constructor. eslint: react/jsx-no-bind

    Why? A bind call in the render path creates a brand new function on every single render.

    // bad
    class extends React.Component {
      onClickDiv() {
        // do stuff
      }
    
      render() {
        return <div onClick={this.onClickDiv.bind(this)} />;
      }
    }
    
    // good
    class extends React.Component {
      constructor(props) {
        super(props);
    
        this.onClickDiv = this.onClickDiv.bind(this);
      }
    
      onClickDiv() {
        // do stuff
      }
    
      render() {
        return <div onClick={this.onClickDiv} />;
      }
    }
  • Do not use underscore prefix for internal methods of a React component.

    Why? Underscore prefixes are sometimes used as a convention in other languages to denote privacy. But, unlike those languages, there is no native support for privacy in JavaScript, everything is public. Regardless of your intentions, adding underscore prefixes to your properties does not actually make them private, and any property (underscore-prefixed or not) should be treated as being public. See issues #1024, and #490 for a more in-depth discussion.

    // bad
    React.createClass({
      _onClickSubmit() {
        // do stuff
      },
    
      // other stuff
    });
    
    // good
    class extends React.Component {
      onClickSubmit() {
        // do stuff
      }
    
      // other stuff
    }
  • Be sure to return a value in your render methods. eslint: react/require-render-return

    // bad
    render() {
      (<div />);
    }
    
    // good
    render() {
      return (<div />);
    }

isMounted

Why? isMounted is an anti-pattern, is not available when using ES6 classes, and is on its way to being officially deprecated.

Formatting

Miscellaneous

Formatting

You may want to use editorconfig.org to enforce the formatting settings in your editor. Use the Node.js Style Guide .editorconfig file to have indentation, newslines and whitespace behavior automatically set to the rules set up below.

2 Spaces for indentation

Use 2 spaces for indenting your code and swear an oath to never mix tabs and spaces - a special kind of hell is awaiting you otherwise.

Newlines

Use UNIX-style newlines (\n), and a newline character as the last character of a file. Windows-style newlines (\r\n) are forbidden inside any repository.

No trailing whitespace

Just like you brush your teeth after every meal, you clean up any trailing whitespace in your JS files before committing. Otherwise the rotten smell of careless neglect will eventually drive away contributors and/or co-workers.

Use Semicolons

According to scientific research, the usage of semicolons is a core value of our community. Consider the points of the opposition, but be a traditionalist when it comes to abusing error correction mechanisms for cheap syntactic pleasures.

80 characters per line

Limit your lines to 80 characters. Yes, screens have gotten much bigger over the last few years, but your brain has not. Use the additional room for split screen, your editor supports that, right?

Use single quotes

Use single quotes, unless you are writing JSON.

Right:

var foo = 'bar';

Wrong:

var foo = "bar";

Opening braces go on the same line

Your opening braces go on the same line as the statement.

Right:

if (true) {
  console.log('winning');
}

Wrong:

if (true)
{
  console.log('losing');
}

Also, notice the use of whitespace before and after the condition statement.

Declare one variable per var statement

Declare one variable per var statement, it makes it easier to re-order the lines. However, ignore Crockford when it comes to declaring variables deeper inside a function, just put the declarations wherever they make sense.

Right:

var keys   = ['foo', 'bar'];
var values = [23, 42];

var object = {};
while (keys.length) {
  var key = keys.pop();
  object[key] = values.pop();
}

Wrong:

var keys = ['foo', 'bar'],
    values = [23, 42],
    object = {},
    key;

while (keys.length) {
  key = keys.pop();
  object[key] = values.pop();
}

Naming Conventions

Use lowerCamelCase for variables, properties and function names

Variables, properties and function names should use lowerCamelCase. They should also be descriptive. Single character variables and uncommon abbreviations should generally be avoided.

Right:

var adminUser = db.query('SELECT * FROM users ...');

Wrong:

var admin_user = db.query('SELECT * FROM users ...');

Use UpperCamelCase for class names

Class names should be capitalized using UpperCamelCase.

Right:

function BankAccount() {
}

Wrong:

function bank_Account() {
}

Use UPPERCASE for Constants

Constants should be declared as regular variables or static class properties, using all uppercase letters.

Right:

var SECOND = 1 * 1000;

function File() {
}
File.FULL_PERMISSIONS = 0777;

Wrong:

const SECOND = 1 * 1000;

function File() {
}
File.fullPermissions = 0777;

Variables

Object / Array creation

Use trailing commas and put short declarations on a single line. Only quote keys when your interpreter complains:

Right:

var a = ['hello', 'world'];
var b = {
  good: 'code',
  'is generally': 'pretty',
};

Wrong:

var a = [
  'hello', 'world'
];
var b = {"good": 'code'
        , is generally: 'pretty'
        };

Conditionals

Use the === operator

Programming is not about remembering stupid rules. Use the triple equality operator as it will work just as expected.

Right:

var a = 0;
if (a !== '') {
  console.log('winning');
}

Wrong:

var a = 0;
if (a == '') {
  console.log('losing');
}

Use descriptive conditions

Any non-trivial conditions should be assigned to a descriptively named variable or function:

Right:

var isValidPassword = password.length >= 4 && /^(?=.*\d).{4,}$/.test(password);

if (isValidPassword) {
  console.log('winning');
}

Wrong:

if (password.length >= 4 && /^(?=.*\d).{4,}$/.test(password)) {
  console.log('losing');
}

Functions

Write small functions

Keep your functions short. A good function fits on a slide that the people in the last row of a big room can comfortably read. So don't count on them having perfect vision and limit yourself to ~15 lines of code per function.

Return early from functions

To avoid deep nesting of if-statements, always return a function's value as early as possible.

Right:

function isPercentage(val) {
  if (val < 0) {
    return false;
  }

  if (val > 100) {
    return false;
  }

  return true;
}

Wrong:

function isPercentage(val) {
  if (val >= 0) {
    if (val < 100) {
      return true;
    } else {
      return false;
    }
  } else {
    return false;
  }
}

Or for this particular example it may also be fine to shorten things even further:

function isPercentage(val) {
  var isInRange = (val >= 0 && val <= 100);
  return isInRange;
}

Name your closures

Feel free to give your closures a name. It shows that you care about them, and will produce better stack traces, heap and cpu profiles.

Right:

req.on('end', function onEnd() {
  console.log('winning');
});

Wrong:

req.on('end', function() {
  console.log('losing');
});

No nested closures

Use closures, but don't nest them. Otherwise your code will become a mess.

Right:

setTimeout(function() {
  client.connect(afterConnect);
}, 1000);

function afterConnect() {
  console.log('winning');
}

Wrong:

setTimeout(function() {
  client.connect(function() {
    console.log('losing');
  });
}, 1000);

Method chaining

One method per line should be used if you want to chain methods.

You should also indent these methods so it's easier to tell they are part of the same chain.

Right:

User
  .findOne({ name: 'foo' })
  .populate('bar')
  .exec(function(err, user) {
    return true;
  });

Wrong:

User
.findOne({ name: 'foo' })
.populate('bar')
.exec(function(err, user) {
  return true;
});

User.findOne({ name: 'foo' })
  .populate('bar')
  .exec(function(err, user) {
    return true;
  });

User.findOne({ name: 'foo' }).populate('bar')
.exec(function(err, user) {
  return true;
});

User.findOne({ name: 'foo' }).populate('bar')
  .exec(function(err, user) {
    return true;
  });

Comments

Use slashes for comments

Use slashes for both single line and multi line comments. Try to write comments that explain higher level mechanisms or clarify difficult segments of your code. Don't use comments to restate trivial things.

Right:

// 'ID_SOMETHING=VALUE' -> ['ID_SOMETHING=VALUE', 'SOMETHING', 'VALUE']
var matches = item.match(/ID_([^\n]+)=([^\n]+)/));

// This function has a nasty side effect where a failure to increment a
// redis counter used for statistics will cause an exception. This needs
// to be fixed in a later iteration.
function loadUser(id, cb) {
  // ...
}

var isSessionValid = (session.expires < Date.now());
if (isSessionValid) {
  // ...
}

Wrong:

// Execute a regex
var matches = item.match(/ID_([^\n]+)=([^\n]+)/);

// Usage: loadUser(5, function() { ... })
function loadUser(id, cb) {
  // ...
}

// Check if the session is valid
var isSessionValid = (session.expires < Date.now());
// If the session is valid
if (isSessionValid) {
  // ...
}

Miscellaneous

Object.freeze, Object.preventExtensions, Object.seal, with, eval

Crazy shit that you will probably never need. Stay away from it.

Requires At Top

Always put requires at top of file to clearly illustrate a file's dependencies. Besides giving an overview for others at a quick glance of dependencies and possible memory impact, it allows one to determine if they need a package.json file should they choose to use the file elsewhere.

Getters and setters

Do not use setters, they cause more problems for people who try to use your software than they can solve.

Feel free to use getters that are free from side effects, like providing a length property for a collection class.

Do not extend built-in prototypes

Do not extend the prototype of native JavaScript objects. Your future self will be forever grateful.

Right:

var a = [];
if (!a.length) {
  console.log('winning');
}

Wrong:

Array.prototype.empty = function() {
  return !this.length;
}

var a = [];
if (a.empty()) {
  console.log('losing');
}
