Contributing to CodeSandbox Client

Code Organization

The CodeSandbox client is currently divided in to 5 parts.

  • app: The editor and profile page
  • sandbox: The preview pane of the editor
  • embed: The embedded version of CodeSandbox (which you can embed on medium)
  • common: The common parts between sandbox, embed and app
  • homepage: Homepage!

This version of CodeSandbox is using the production server as source of truth, this is specified by the environment variable LOCAL_SERVER. It's not yet possible to sign in using this version, I haven't figured out how to handle this yet.

Setting Up the project locally

To install the project you need to have yarn and node

  1. Fork the project, clone your fork:

    # Clone your fork
    git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/codesandbox-client.git
    
    # Navigate to the newly cloned directory
    cd codesandbox-client
    
  2. yarn to install dependencies

  3. yarn start to start the app

Tip: Keep your master branch pointing at the original repository and make pull requests from branches on your fork. To do this, run:

git remote add upstream https://github.com/CompuIves/codesandbox-client.git
git fetch upstream
git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream/master master

This will add the original repository as a "remote" called "upstream," Then fetch the git information from that remote, then set your local master branch to use the upstream master branch whenever you run git pull. Then you can make all of your pull request branches based on this master branch. Whenever you want to update your version of master, do a regular git pull.

Submitting a Pull Request

Please go through existing issues and pull requests to check if somebody else is already working on it, we use someone working on it label to mark such issues.

Also, make sure to run the tests before you commit your changes.

yarn test
