##A Living Document of Responsive Deliverables

Inspired by the recent movement of creating systems, not pages. This is a living library of deliverables that can be stylized to fit your next project. Each pattern is included within the pattern directory and can be optionally included into the final guide.

Quick Start

Clone the git repo - git clone git://github.com/cjdsie/pattern-portfolio.git or download it

This framework using Node.js, NPM (Node Package Manager), and Grunt.js to manage the code in this repo. To preview code locally, you'll need to install Node and NPM, then run the following commands from a terminal window, in the repo directory:

 $ npm install
 $ grunt

Those commands do the following:

• npm install will install the necessary node.js packages to develop on this project
• grunt will run a series of tasks defined in Gruntfile.js, such as concatenating or minifying CSS and JavaScript.

Once you have done all this, you can preview the site by starting a web server at the localhost:8080. In the same terminal window:

  $ node server

I have set up a watch task to automatically rebuild the views and public files whenever files are changed. When you start working, just run the following commands to run all tasks and then start the watch task:

$ grunt && grunt watch

Adding Patterns

All patterns are separate HTML files that live in /views/patterns. Ideally, the file name should be the same as the pattern's main class name. Add a file to see it in the library then include it in the main index.html.

For all presentation styles, we are using .scss partials. Our gruntfile will combine the partials into a single CSS file.
