# Install at least Node v6.3 if you don't already have it (NVM recommended)
nvm install v6

npm install
npm install -g babel-cli

cd config
cp steem-example.json steem-dev.json

(note: it's steem.json in production)

OS X :

brew update
brew doctor
brew upgrade
brew install mysql
mysql.server restart

Debian based Linux:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mysql-server

Now launch mysql client and create steemit_dev database:

mysql -u root
> create database steemit_dev;

Install sequelize-cli globally:

npm install -g sequelize sequelize-cli pm2 mysql

Run sequelize db:migrate in db/ directory.

npm start

You now have your development front end running at localhost:3002, connected to the main public steem blockchain. You don't need to run steemd locally, by default you will connect to ws://node.steem.ws. Use your regular account name and credentials to login -- there is no separate dev login.

• Prefer CamelCase js and jsx file names
• Prefer lower case one word directory names
• Keep stylesheet files close to components
• Component's stylesheet file name should match component name

We are using Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide with some modifications (see .eslintrc). Please run eslint in the working directory before committing your changes and make sure you didn't introduce any new styling issues.

If component requires a css rule, please use its uppercase name for the class, e.g. "Header" class for the header's root div. We adhere to BEM methodology with exception for Foundation classes, here is an example for the Header component:

<!-- Block -->
<ul class="Header">
  ...
  <!-- Element -->
  <li class="Header__menu-item">Menu Item 1</li>
  <!-- Element with modifier -->
  <li class="Header__menu-item--selected">Element with modifier</li>
</ul>

If you want to test it locally in production mode, just run the following commands:

npm run build
npm run prod

or via pm2:

npm run build
npm -i -g pm2 # one time
pm2 start config/process.json
