You probably want to get started by checking out the code in src/.

build/ is deprecated and the code needs to be rewritten in src/.

To make changes in Javascript bear in mind that the Webpack needs to process each change before it reflects on the site. It is a good idea to run yarn encore dev --watch which will keep updating files as you keep saving them.

Documentation

Documentation is in the doc tree and can be compiled using mkdocs:

The result can then be accessed via doc/html/ in your cloned repository.

Procedure

If you see an updated composer.json or composer.lock make sure to run

composer install --prefer-dist --no-progress --no-interaction --no-scripts

Also run

yarn install --frozen-lock

everytime you see a change in either package.json or yarn.lock.

If any .scss file or a file in assets/ changed a make build is necessary.
