* We don't use ES6's class declaration for React components because it does not support Mixins as well as Autobinding ([Blog post about it](http://facebook.github.io/react/blog/2015/01/27/react-v0.13.0-beta-1.html#autobinding))
* We use `momentjs` instead of Javascript's `Date` object, as the native `Date` interface previously introduced bugs and we're including `momentjs` for other dependencies anyway
Install [lint-scss](https://github.com/brigade/scss-lint), check the [editor integration docs](https://github.com/brigade/scss-lint#editor-integration) to integrate the lint in your editor.

To allow Github and JIRA to track branches while still allowing us to switch branches quickly using a ticket's number (and keep our peace of mind), we have the following rules for naming branches:
We're using Facebook's jest to do testing as it integrates nicely with react.js as well.
Tests are always created per directory by creating a `__tests__` folder. To test a specific file, a `<file_name>_tests.js` file needs to be created.
Since we're using mixed syntax, test files are not linted using ES6Lint.
This is due to the fact that jest's function mocking and ES6 module syntax are [fundamentally incompatible](https://github.com/babel/babel-jest/issues/16).
Therefore, to require a module in your test file, you need to use CommonJS's `require` syntax. Except for this, all tests can be written in ES6 syntax.

Integration Testing
-------------------
We're using [Sauce Labs](https://saucelabs.com/home) with [WD.js](https://github.com/admc/wd) for integration testing across browser grids with Selenium.
See the [helper docs](test/integration/README.md) for information on each part of the test stack and how to run and write tests.
A: You should already be set up if you copied [.env_template](./.env_template) as `.env`, however, if you don't want to do this, you can also start your dev server with the following command:
