Getting Started

System Requirements

As this is a React JS application, you need the following to support your development environment.

Git
Node.js (Please go with any latest LTS versions)
Linux Based Terminal, if you're using Windows and installed with Git.
Google Chrome or a decent latest web browser.
Visual Studio Code is the go-to editor for some complex languages like React using JSX or TypeScript and I finally agreed with Wes Bos that VS Code is better for development of React JS. Obviously, with VS Code, you should be having the right extensions to support your React JS development, but comparing with Sublime Text 2, VS Code is still in its infancy. Get these extensions and here's my dotfile:
1. Prettier - Code formatter helps you to format your JavaScript / TypeScript / CSS using Prettier.
2. Cobalt2 Theme Official is the theme used by Wes Bos, which comes with a nice user experience and a lot of awesome features. I am using a modified version of Cobalt2 that's a crossover between Monokai and Cobalt2.
3. GitLens - Git supercharged supercharges the Git capabilities built into Visual Studio Code. It helps you to visualize code authorship at a glance via Git blame annotations and code lens, seamlessly navigate and explore Git repositories, gain valuable insights via powerful comparison commands, and so much more.
4. Git History helps you to view git log, file history, compare branches or commits inside VS Code.
5. ESLint integrates ESLint into VS Code. If you are new to ESLint check the documentation.
6. ES7 React/Redux/GraphQL/React-Native snippets provides you JavaScript and React/Redux snippets in ES7 with Babel plugin features for VS Code.
7. Todo Tree (optional) quickly searches (using ripgrep) your workspace for comment tags like TODO and FIXME, and displays them in a tree view in the explorer pane. Clicking a TODO within the tree will open the file and put the cursor on the line containing the TODO.
8. vscode-icons (optional) is more of a cosmetic thing, which brings icons to the Visual Studio Code editor.

Contribution Guidelines

Please read our Code of Conduct and Gitflow for contributing towards the project.
Write clear meaningful git commit messages (Do read this).
Make sure your PR's description contains GitHub's special keyword references that automatically close the related issue when the PR is merged. (Check this for more info)
When you make very very minor changes to a PR of yours (like for example fixing a text in button, minor changes requested by reviewers) make sure you squash your commits afterwards so that you don't have an absurd number of commits for a very small fix. (Learn how to squash at here)
When you're submitting a PR for a UI-related issue, it would be really awesome if you add a screenshot of your change or a link to a deployment where it can be tested out along with your PR. It makes it very easy for the reviewers and you'll also get reviews quicker.
Please follow the PR Template to create the PR.
Always create PR to develop branch.
