Follow the guidelines and rules in this document during the research and development stage of the projects. The guidelines are a limited version of the ones described in the main parts of the development guidelines — which can be ignored and are arbitrary to follow unless explicitly stated in the following sections — and they must be applied only to small R&D and exploration projects that don't require long-term development or extensive collaboration with other contributors.
Use rnd as a prefix and name the repository according to the main contribution rules document; for instance:
- rnd-bdp-figma-rest-api-exploration
- rnd-bdp-storybook-exploration
All repositories must be private and only accessible to the members of Acid.info.
Even though programs developed in the R&D stage are not necessarily going to production, you need to keep the possibility in mind and make them as portable as possible. Therefore, your R&D project's stack must be aligned with what's described in the main technology stack document depending on the case whenever possible.
The following are some instances to help you further:
- Exploring third-party web services:
- Typescript is essential.
- If a web server is needed, then NestJS would be the best choice, but a plain node or express.js server will also suffice.
- If a web front is required, it should be created with NextJS.
No particular branching strategy is required to be applied unless it's needed for deployments, which should be chosen according to the defined branching strategies.
TBD.
