Pre workshop email

Hi,

To start the workshop as quick and as smooth as possible, we’re asking you to do some preparation in advance. Installing software and npm dependencies will take a lot of time on a conference wifi, so better do it at home.

1. Make sure you have installed:

• Git 2.0, or newer
• Node.js 10.0, or newer
• npm 6.0, or newer

We recommend n or nvm to install Node.js.

Run git --version, node --version and npm --version to check which versions you have installed.

2. Clone the workshop repository:

git clone https://github.com/component-driven/component-driven-development.git

3. Install dependencies:

cd component-driven-development
npm install

4. Try to run everything:

• npm start to work on exercises and run the completed style guide
• npm run app to run the completed app

To refresh your React knowledge we recommend the official tutorial and The Beginner’s Guide to React course by Kent C. Dodds. To learn command line basics we recommend Really Friendly Command Line Intro by Tracy Osborn.

Please pull the latest changes right before the workshop, in case we do some last minute updates:

git pull origin master

We’re looking forward to seeing you soon!
