commonknowledge.coop

Public website for Common Knowledge Co-operative.

Key tech

The deployed website is a static site generated by Gatsby, styled with Rebass and styled-components for explicit CSS, and written in React + TypeScript. Relies on Node for development, preferably installed via Node Version Manager (nvm).

Development

• Initial install: yarn to dl/build package dependencies (prefer node@^11)
• Dev deploy: yarn develop to deploy locally with hot-reload on edit, exposed to http://localhost:8000/.
• Prod deploy: Commit to master branch and push to GitHub to auto-deploy a new production version to https://commonknowledge.coop

If you encounter a sharp error

Delete node_modules/sharp, then run yarn add sharp and it should fix itself.

Infrastructure

• Production deployment from GitHub is handled by netlify.com/sites/commonknowledge. It will run gatsby build remotely to generate the production-ready static files. Login to the control panel with hello@commonknowledge.coop (password in the shared LastPass folder)
• DNS config is version controlled at git.coop/dns/commonknowledge/zonefiles
