This section describes the workflow we are going to follow when working in a new feature or fixing a bug. If you want to contribute, please follow these steps:
- Fork this project
- Clone the forked project to your local environment, for example:
git clone git@github.com:crysfel/coding-coach-front-end.git(Make sure to replace the URL to your own repository). - Add the original project as a remote, for this example the name is
upstream, feel free to use whatever name you want.git remote add upstream https://github.com/Coding-Coach/find-a-mentor.git.
Forking the project will create a copy of that project in your own GitHub account, you will commit your work against your own repository.
- Navigate to the project folder.
- Run
yarn - Run
yarn test - Type
ato run all tests - Type
qto quit (this will start cypress and set that up) - If the browser doesn't open automatically, navigate to http://localhost:3000 to see the site.
For other options, please see Available Scripts below.
We're using Storybook. Each reusable component should be added. If you're not sure 🤷🏾, please ask 🙋

In order to update your local environment to the latest version on master, you will have to pull the changes using the upstream repository, for example: git pull upstream master. This will pull all the new commits from the origin repository to your local environment.
When working on a new feature, create a new branch feature/something from the master branch, for example feature/login-form. Commit your work against this new branch and push everything to your forked project. Once everything is completed, you should create a PR to the original project. Make sure to add a description about your work.
When fixing a bug, create a new branch fix/something from the master branch, for example fix/css-btn-issues. When completed, push your commits to your forked repository and create a PR from there. Please make sure to describe what was the problem and how did you fix it.
Let's say you've been working on a feature for a couple days, most likely there are new changes in master and your branch is behind. In order to update it to the latest (You might not need/want to do this) you need to pull the latest changes to master and then rebase your current branch.
$ git checkout master
$ git pull upstream master
$ git checkout feature/something-awesome
$ git rebase masterAfter this, your commits will be on top of the master commits. From here you can push to your origin repository and create a PR.
You might have some conflicts while rebasing, try to resolve the conflicts for each individual commit. Rebasing is intimidating at the beginning, if you need help don't be afraid to reach out in slack.

Launches the Cypress test runner and the app; must run on port 3000. Learn more about Cypress on their website.
Alternatively You can also use Gitpod ( a free online IDE that will automate your dev setup ) for contributing with a single click. It will launch a ready to code workspace with the dependencies pre-installed so that you can start contributing without wasting precious time on development setup.
At Coding Coach, we value all our mentors, mentees, and contributors. Our goal is to make this a safe space where new and experienced developers can connect and learn from one another. Therefore, we do not tolerate any form of harassment or prejudice. This Code of Conduct applies to all Coding Coach spaces including but not limited to slack, email correspondence, and social media.
Harassment includes but is not limited to:
- Offensive comments related to gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, mental illness, physical appearance, body size, age, race, or religion.
- Deliberate misgendering or use of ‘dead’ or rejected names.
- Physical contact and simulated physical contact (eg, textual descriptions like “hug” or “backrub”) without consent or after a request to stop.
- Threats of violence.
- Incitement of violence towards any individual, including encouraging a person to commit suicide or to engage in self-harm.
- Deliberate intimidation.
- Stalking or following.
- Harassing photography or recording, including logging online activity for harassment purposes.
- Unwelcome sexual attention such as sexual images or behaviour in spaces where they’re not appropriate.
- Pattern of inappropriate social contact, such as requesting/assuming inappropriate levels of intimacy with others
- Continued one-on-one communication after requests to cease.
- Deliberate “outing” of any aspect of a person’s identity without their consent except as necessary to protect vulnerable people from intentional abuse.
- Publication of non-harassing private communication.
We value integrity here at Coding Coach. As such, mentees may not ask for solutions to technical interview take home assessments. We're happy to mentor you in the process of solving difficult questions, but will not provide you with solutions to your assessments as they are meant to reflect your personal skill set.
Members who violate this code of conduct will be approached by someone of the Coding Coach leadership team and asked to stop immediately. Members may also be banned from the Coding Coach slack, blocked on social media, and removed from the website.
If someone makes you or anyone else feel unsafe or unwelcome, please report it as soon as possible. To report an incident of harassment, anonymously or otherwise, please fill out our report form.
Our primary goal is to support you. We will listen to you and then help you determine a course of action based on the situation. While harassment may not always result in that member being expelled from the group, depending on the type and severity of harassment. We want to make sure you have all the support you need no matter what that entails, including whether to stay anonymous or not. Whatever decision you make, our priority is your safety.
Our goal is to keep Coding Coach a free platform because we believe that mentorship should be free and accessible for all users. However, there are some costs incurred with creating a platform. We could use your help! If you're just as passionate about Coding Coach as we are, we'd appreciate your support on Patreon. Here, you can sign up to be a member and help support our mission.
