React — documentation site

Getting started

Prerequisites

  1. Git
  2. Node: install version 7.6 or greater
  3. Yarn: npm i -g yarn to install it globally via NPM
  4. A clone of the React repo on your local machine
  5. A fork of the repo (for any contributions)

Installation

  1. cd react to go into the project root
  2. yarn to install the main NPM dependencies
  3. cd www to go into the website project
  4. yarn to install the website's NPM dependencies

Running locally

  1. yarn dev to start the hot-reloading development server powered by Gatsby
  2. open http://localhost:8000 to open the site in your favourite browser

Contributing

Create a branch

  1. git checkout master from any folder in your local react repository
  2. git pull origin master to ensure you have the latest main code
  3. git checkout -b wwwTheNameOfMyChange (replacing TheNameOfMyChange with a suitable name) to create a branch

Make the change

  1. Follow the "Running locally" instructions
  2. Save the files and check in the browser
  3. Any React components in src/components or src/templates will hot-reload
  4. If working with plugins, you may need to remove the .cache directory and restart the server

Test the change

  1. If possible, test any visual changes in all latest versions of common browsers, on both desktop and mobile.
  2. Run yarn prettier-all && yarn lint from the project root (outside of www)

Push it

  1. git add -A && git commit -m "My message" (replacing My message with a commit message, such as Fixed header logo on Android) to stage and commit your changes
  2. git push yourname wwwTheNameOfMyChange
  3. Go to the React repo and you should see recently pushed branches.
  4. ... follow GitHub's instructions...
  5. If possible, include any screenshots of visual changes. A Netlify build will also be automatically created once you make your PR, so other people can see your change.

Troubleshooting

  • yarn reset to clear the local cache
