Contribute

Please help making this project better and contribute with your knowledge.

CSS

We are use vanilla CSS but enhance the experience using Pleeease as a post processor.

However all .css-files are compiled into one file called main.css in the dist-folder. There is a productive-version (means minified), too.

JS

We use jQuery, Modernizr (custom build via Grunt) and RequireJS.

Please use JSHint for your JavaScript before you commit. You can use the Grunt-task jshint for this. It is also integrated in grunt watch.

Creating a Build

Please use Grunt.js for building a production-state of a website. The Gruntfile.js has tasks for concatenating and minifing CSS and JavaScript.

Additional information on this project is stored in package.json.

Development

This package is developed and maintained by Hans Christian Reinl, Anselm Hannemann and more contributors.
