Requirements

• You need to have yarn (recommended) or npm installed.

Useful commands

Yarn

• yarn - Install and update dependencies.
• yarn dev - Launch local web server with hot compiling. Ideal to work on the project easily.
• yarn build - Build the website in production mode to the dist/ folder.
• yarn build-gz - Builds a gzip compressed version of the built app in the dist/ folder.
• yarn build-render - Build the website in production mode and pre-render it to the dist/ folder.
• yarn pre-render - Pre-renders the previously built website.

NPM

• npm install - Install and update dependencies.
• npm run dev - Launch local web server with hot compiling. Ideal to work on the project easily.
• npm run build - Build the website in production mode to the dist/ folder.
• npm run build-gz - Builds a gzip compressed version of the built app in the dist/ folder.
• npm run build-render - Build the website in production mode and pre-render it to the dist/ folder.
• npm run pre-render - Pre-renders the perviously built website.

Customization

Note: To apply all of these changes you must rebuild the app.

If you're not hosting the app at the root of the server

Go to webpack.config.js and change the constant BASE_URL, be sure it ends with a /.
PRE-RENDER DOESN'T WORK WITH CUSTOM BASE_URL

Favicons

You can replace them at src/assets/icons/.

Avatar

You can replace it at src/assets/. If the name or the extension is different to "avatar.svg", you need to modify it in src/config.js and src/assets-imports.js.

Title

Change the <title> tag in src/index.html.

Most of the UI (description, work content, contact icons...)

Modify src/config.js. You can add, remove or modify its contents.

ReCATPCHA public key

Change it in src/config.js.

Translations

Customize them in the src/assets/lang/ folder. Add a new lang file named by the IEC_15897 standard, paste contents from your source locale and translate it. To activate a language copy the contents from the source locale to src/asssets/lang.json.

Add icons

Add new icon paths with the desired ID in the src/assets/icons.svg file.

Usage

Once everything is compiled and built the last step is to serve the contents of the dist/ folder as static files with your web server of choice and you're done!

Form API

The form of the contact page is sent to the address specified in src/config.js as formUrl. The request has:

• Method: POST
• Header: Content-Type: "application/json; charset=UTF-8"
• Body:

  {
  "name": "Name introduced in the form",
  "mail": "Email introduced in the form",
  "msg": "Text/Message introduced in the form",
  "g-recaptcha-response": "Google's reCAPTCHA v2 response for server-side validation"
  }
