# Contributing to Theatre.js
## The quick version
Have `node 14+` and `yarn 1.22+` installed. Then `git clone` and `yarn install`. Then `cd packages/playground` and `yarn run serve`. Happy hacking!
## The long version
### Prerequisites
Make sure you have [Node](https://nodejs.org/) installed at v14.0.0+
```sh
$ node -v
> v14.0.0
```
and [Yarn](https://classic.yarnpkg.com/en/) at v1.22.10+.
```sh
$ yarn -v
> 1.22.10
```
> **Note about Yarn v2**: This repo uses Yarn v2. You don't have to install yarn v2 globally. If you do have yarn 1.22.10+ installed, and `cd` into `/path/to/theatre`, yarn will automatically switch to v2. Read more about Yarn v2 [here](https://yarnpkg.com/).
### Fork, Clone & Install
Start by forking Theatre.js to your GitHub account. Then clone your fork and install dependencies:
```sh
$ git clone git@github.com:<your-user>/theatre.git
$ cd theatre
$ yarn
```
> ⚠ theatre relies on
> [yarn workspaces](https://yarnpkg.com/features/workspaces) so
> `npm install` will not work in this repository.
Add our repo as a git remote so you can pull/rebase your fork with our latest
updates:
```sh
$ git remote add upstream git@github.com:AriaMinaei/theatre.git
```
## Start hacking with `playground`
The quickest way to start tweaking things is to run the `playground` package.
```sh
$ cd ./packages/playground
$ yarn serve
```
The playground is a bunch of ready-made projects that you can run to experiment with Theatre.js.
It uses a single ESBuild config to build all of the related packages in one go, so you don't have to run a bunch of build commands.
Read more at [`./packages/playground/README.md`](./packages/playground/README.md).
## Project structure
* `@theatre/core` The core animation library.
* Location: [`./theatre/core`](./theatre/core)
* `@theatre/studio` The visual editor.
* Location: [`./theatre/studio`](./theatre/studio)
* `@theatre/dataverse` The reactive dataflow library.
* Location: [`./packagtes/dataverse`](./packages/dataverse)
* `@theatre/react` Utilities for using Theatre with React.
* Location: [`./packagtes/react`](./packages/react)
* `@theatre/r3f` The react-three-fiber extension.
* Location: [`./packagtes/r3f`](./packages/r3f)
* `playground` The quickest way to hack on the internals of Theatre. It bundles all the related packages together with one ESBuild setup.
* Location: [`./packagtes/playground`](./packages/playground)
* `examples/`
* A bunch of examples, using Theatre with [parcel](https://parceljs.org) or [Create react app](create-react-app.dev).
### Commands
#### Root commands
```sh
# Run the playground. It's a shortcut for `cd ./playground; yarn run serve`
yarn playground
# Run all the tests.
yarn test
# Run tests in watch mode.
yarn test --watch
# Typecheck all the packages
yarn typecheck
# Run eslint on the repo
yarn lint:all
# Run eslint and auto fix
yarn lint:all --fix
```
> Yarn passes all extra parameters to the internal scripts. So, for example, if you wish to run the tests in watch more, you can run `yarn test --watch`.
