This site has a small style guide (or more precisely, pattern library) due to a focus on reusable components. The patterns have been grouped by scope, making it easy to understand where to use each.

• Text scope — For CMS generated HTML.
• Global scope — Every other pattern.

Guidelines

There’s also some guidelines that should be followed when extending the codebase. Check the colophon more more technical information.

• All posts use the post layout by default. To avoid redundancy, if you just want to create a regular post then don’t specify a layout.
• When creating a new layout or pattern, check the style guide to see if you can reuse/extend existing ones. This avoids code duplication and manteinance problems.
• Favour Markdown files (.md by convention) over HTML, so they can be read when accessed on the GitHub repo.
• If a post or page contains code blocks, set syntax: true in the front-matter to load syntax highlighting only when necessary.
