Want to use Nautilus in your next web app? Well: don't! It's much too early and it's nowhere near ready for production usage. Check back later. 😅
You can technically install it from NPM, but you can't say we didn't warn you!
npm install @octopusthink/nautilus
Want to contribute to Nautilus, or test it locally? Here's how!
node
(LTS)npm
Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/octopusthink/nautilus.git
Navigate into the directory:
cd nautilus
Install the dependencies:
npm install
And use npm
to compile files, watch for changes, and build the styleguide:
npm start
This will start a server for the styleguide at https://localhost:6060/ and watch for any changes.
You'll need to restart npm
if you make changes to styleguide.config.js
, but otherwise you should be good to go!
We use jest
to run our unit tests. If you've made changes, jest
will only run tests on files related to your changes:
npm test
We lint our code using eslint
and prettier
. You can check your changes for linting violations with:
npm run lint
- React - Making JavaScript simultaneously modern and also more like HTML since 1998.
- React Styleguidist - Is your styleguide running? You'd better go catch it!
- Feather - The prettiest open-source icons in town.
