Development

The development version up to date with the current version of the gh-pages branch can be found here - PES Innovation Lab Github pages. This application is written in Javascript and is powered by NextJS and consequently, by ReactJS.

Dynamic data is fetched from an API server running on Heroku. Refer to: PES Innovation Lab API Repository for more information on the API.

Setting up your development environment :

1. Clone the repository after forking.
2. Ensure you have nodeJS and npm installed.
3. Run npm install to fetch and install all the necessary packages
4. Run npm run dev to run the development server.
5. Access website at http://localhost:3000/.

Build and export

1. Run npm run build to build the application.
2. Run npm run export to export the application as a set of static pages.

Contributing

We use a rebase-oriented workflow. We do not use merge commits. This means to get your local branch up-to-date with the upstream, you would use

git pull --rebase upstream master

instead of regular git pull. It’s best to write your commits prefacing the file you changed, but if you don’t, you can always fix your history using git rebase -i. An example of a good commit would be

index: Fix UI layout in mobile view.
