Setup

Requirement

Instalation

Install nodejs first, if you do not have.
You can use npm or yarn to install dependencies. Here, yarn install is being used to install the required node modules.
Chat++ uses ESLint for checking code styles. It uses eslint-babel parser instead of the default ESLint parser. You have to install them first.

npm install -g eslint babel-eslint

You can refer the .eslintrc.json file for the rules that Chat++ is following. Check ESLint Rules Document for the rules in detail.
Laravel Mix, a Webpack wrapper, is being used to compile assets. You can check out the usage at their documentation page.
Run npm run dev to build codes from src folder.
Run npm test or eslint src to check whether your codes satisfy the coding conventions or not.
