CVT Official Landing Page

This is the official landing page for CVT! This is worked on by the website team of CVT.

Important links

Basic linting format
Spaces between “=” and one-lined “{}”
Always use curly braces on if statements and loops
Use comments, but not too much
Follow React.js best practices
Avoid using custom CSS, use the “theme-ui” properties/syntax instead
Use the same coding-style as used currently
If you are not sure if you should delete some code, just comment it out temporarily

We solely use GitHub
We do not use Trello anymore
Co-Leads will assign tasks to developers
All communication happens in the private “website-project” channel on CVT
When working on the website, you can do any of the 3 things:
- Work from an issue
- Pick an issue
- Make sure you assign yourself to the task
Be sure to work on your own branch
- You can pull requests with your own branch, you can’t push changes directly to the master
Once you’re done, make a pull request
- Doesn’t merge changes into master immediately
- Also lets Netlify run checks before merge
- One of the Co-Leads will look at your PR and merge it or tell you to make changes
Testing the website
- Go on our deployed website and test for any bugs
- Not e2e/unit tests, just regular user tests
- Any bugs that are found should be filed as an issue
- Make sure you use the right tags!
- Don’t assign anyone other than yourself

There is no set number of hours you must work each day
We expect you to constantly be working on tasks and helping improve the website most of the days of the week
The website community manager (Calix) will oversee everyone’s progress and work
Those who do not contribute up to the standard are in risk of being removed off of the website team

If you need any help, reach out to Calix, Steve, or Fernanda!
