How to setup the project
$ git clone https://github.com/tahnik/devRantron.git
$ cd devRantron
$ npm install
$ npm run dev
The dev script entry will start two processes. One process will create a webpack-dev-server that will watch and reload the bundle as you edit and will make it available at http://localhost:8080.
The second process will run the electron app in development mode, meaning that it will open up devtools with React and Redux devtools initialized.
Commiting code
Make sure that your code is passing all linting tests before commiting it. This is usually done automatically by using husky precommit hooks.
devRantron uses angular styled commit messages. Messages that do not match the criteria are rejected. To make it easy to use them, use git cz instead of git commit.
It will start an interactive prompt and asks you for various things.
Before pushing
Make sure that you add yourself as a contributor. Simply run npm run contributors:add <comma_separated_list_of_emoji_keys. All the different emoji keys can be found here.
