Note About Pattern Lab

dmolsen opened this issue · 3 comments

This is really nitpicky but Pattern Lab doesn't require a server. It does require PHP but a builder generates a static site and that site can be used sans Apache. I didn't want to put in a PR because I'm not sure how or if you wanted to handle that clarification. We've put in a bit of effort to reduce dependencies. Apache is one of those.

Also, it can be used as part of a Grunt task. Once we get that fully documented I'll post a PR. This is a fantastic resource.

Thanks for your clarification @dmolsen — I think I'll just remove those introductory paragraphs altogether. The main tech (PHP, NodeJS, etc) might not be that relevant after all since there is quite a bit of overlap: e.g. Pattern Lab is based on PHP but is really more of a Static Site Generator if I understand you correctly.

Maybe I'd have to add a list of keywords. For Pattern Lab this would be something like Tech: PHP, Static Site Generator, Grunt Task? Do you think that would be helpful?

Thanks Dave.

I've removed the paragraph regarding the webserver dependency, added 'tags' and updated the formatting a bit. Closing this issue. Ok, @dmolsen? PS: Pattern Lab rocks! ;)

👍 to the keywords :) thanks.
