- Bootstrap frontend styling
- ReactJS frontend framework
- Express middeleware
- NodeJS backend
- MongoDB database
- Npm build system
/api Contains all of our models and backend route logic
/js Contains all of our frontend javascript (i.e. React components and frontend routes)
server.js Main application entry-point (i.e node server.js)
We are using NPM as our build system and package manager. To get our code set up you will have to create a few directories before you run the build. You must create a directory called build and put project directories inside it.
If this is your first time building our code, first run npm run build-fonts and npm run build-images. Finaly run, ./scripts/connect-git-hooks.sh to make sure you have our pre-push
and any other git hooks we've created. Then, you are set to start coding and rebuilding our code.
Every time you want to run the site, you should open two terminal tabs. In one, run
npm start. In the other, run npm run watch. This will watch all of your changes to the frontend
and continuously rebuild it.
TODO(Stephen) Add live reloading for the backend.
- Alphabetize React component imports
- Use javascript "===" instead of "=="
- Use two-space indents
- Start js files with "use strict" (allows jsxhint to work)
- Never include component lifecycle functions unless you need them
