🎨 Themes Overview

💼 Contents

This repository is a collection of my Gatsby themes, managed as a monorepo with Changesets and yarn workspaces.

• .changeset: Changeset files and configuration.
• .github: GitHub actions, templates for issues, and FUNDING file. A GitHub action will publish the /examples as starters to individual GitHub repositories. Another GitHub action will handle the publishing of packages.
• cypress: Contains the Cypress tests for examples.
• examples: Contains the corresponding example sites for the themes. These projects can and should be used as a starter and will be copied over to their own repository. Hence they contain example data and additional Gatsby plugins (e.g. gatsby-plugin-manifest). The folder names are the contents after gatsby-theme-*.
• packages: Shared helpers and utilities for the themes. Compiled with tsup.
• plop-templates: Template for plop.js.
• scripts: In order to run the tests on GitHub Actions some utility bash scripts are needed which are located here.
• themes: Contains the themes themselves. They should only have the bare minimum of plugins installed (as examples can expand them) and also use Theme UI for styling. The naming of the folders must be gatsby-theme-[name-with-dashes] and the package name under the scope of @lekoarts.
• www: Contains the source code for themes.lekoarts.de.
• vite.config.ts & vitest-setup.ts: Vitest is used for Unit Testing.

🤝 How to Contribute

Make sure that you have yarn installed on your machine (as it's mandatory for yarn workspaces). Fork this repository, clone it and run yarn in the root directory.

To launch the development server of an example site, use:

yarn workspace [examples/name] develop

Or for a build:

yarn workspace [examples/name] build

In the case of examples/emma this command would be yarn workspace emma develop. Now you can make changes to the respective theme and see them via Hot-Reloading.

Commit your changes to a feature branch of your fork and open up a PR against this repository. The PR will have checks in place (unit and end-to-end tests) which you can also run on your machine in preparation for the PR.
