Introduction

Onion is the web client for Ascribe. The idea is to have a well documented, easy to test, easy to hack, JavaScript application.

The code is JavaScript ECMA 6.

Getting started

Install some nice extensions for Chrom(e|ium):

Allow-Control-Allow-Origin: we need this to open connection to external hosts (staging.ascribe.io in our case)
React Developer Tools

git clone git@bitbucket.org:ascribe/onion.git
cd onion
npm install
gulp serve

For this project, we're using:

4 Spaces
We use ES6
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)
We don't use camel case for file naming but in everything Javascript related
We use let instead of var: SA Post

Q: OMG nothing works A: try npm install. Someone may have updated some dependencies
