NOTICE

This repository is currently work-in-progress, and will eventually replace the existing separate documentation repositories for the different parts of the Vaadin platform.

Documentation and code examples for Vaadin.

Files not explicitly listed below are from the standard Vaadin project setup.

A hierarchy of AsciiDoc (either .asciidoc or .adoc) files, documenting the use of all Vaadin features. The file path defines the resulting URL on the documentation site.

For example:

• articles/intro/index.asciidoc → /intro/
• articles/forms/data-binding.asciidoc → /forms/data-binding/

See Authoring articles to learn how to write documentation articles.

Fusion/TypeScript examples, which are included as rendered examples in the documentation. Follow Vaadin best practices when creating code examples.

Flow/Java examples, which are included as rendered examples in the documentation. Follow Vaadin best practices when creating code examples.

Project related scripts (tests, validation builds, preview deployment, etc).

Files related to linting the articles against the writing style guidelines with Vale.

To run the writing guideline checks locally, you need to install Asciidoctor and Vale, and install the Vale plugin/extension for your preferred editor:

• VS Code: vale-vscode
• Atom: atomic-vale

In order to run all the same checks as are run for pull request, you need to install all the style libraries locally under .github/styles (next to the already existing Vaadin and Vocab folders):

• The Google folder from https://github.com/errata-ai/Google
• The Microsoft folder from https://github.com/errata-ai/Microsoft
• The write-good folder from https://github.com/errata-ai/write-good

To manually check an article, run vale path/to/article.asciidoc in the terminal.

If you need to disable certain checks for a piece of content, you can use the following in AsciiDoc:

pass:[<!-- vale Vale.Terms = NO -->]
This content will not produce errors or warnings for the Vale.Terms checks.
pass:[<!-- vale Vale.Terms = YES -->]
