Guides

How the Technology Team at Handsome gets things done.

• Protocol
  • Git
  • Pull Requests
• Templates
  • README

High level guidelines:

• Be consistent.
• Don't rewrite existing code to follow this guide.
• Don't violate a guideline without a good reason.
• A reason is good when you can convince a teammate.

A note on the language:

• "Avoid" means don't do it unless you have good reason.
• "Don't" means there's never a good reason.
• "Prefer" indicates a better option and its alternative to watch out for.
• "Use" is a positive instruction.
