Instructions

Development Instructions

• Install NPM and Node first if you haven't yet.
• Install Pingy with npm install -g @pingy/cli.
• Run npm install and yarn.
• Run pingy dev to start the development server. This will open the project with hot reloading.

Deployment Instructions

• Run pingy export. Doing this will create the dist folder.
• Navigate to the dist folder and deploy however you want.
• Optional: If you want to deploy with Surge, install Surge first and run surge on this directory.

Directory Structure

• The images folder contains the images for this README.
• The scripts folder contains the JS code for the project. You can read the scripts section below for more information.
• The styles folder contains the CSS code for the project. You can read the styles section below for more information.
• The dist folder contains the exported files for deployment. This is generated by pingy export.

Scripts

The source script here is main.babel.js. After pingy export, this file and all its dependencies is converted to main.js. To use this in your HTML, you reference this as main.js. So if you have a scripts.babel.js, it is converted to scripts.js, which you reference like so:

<script src="scripts/scripts.js" defer></script>

This main.babel.js contains ES6 code. You can also try Coffeescript, etc. Follow the Pingy link below for more information.

Styles

The source stylesheet here is main.scss. After pingy export, this file and all its dependencies is converted to main.css. To use this in your HTML, you reference this as main.css. So if you have a styles.scss, it is converted to styles.css, which you reference like so:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles/styles.css">

This main.scss contains SCSS code. You can also try Sass, Stylus, etc. Follow the Pingy link below for more information.
