Simple notes

When you run npm run start, it reads package.json, specifically 'scripts' So npm run start seems to launch the 'start' script there. It runs server.js, which is server.ts, and you can tell because at the bottom it logs stuff.

Running works with launch.json listed at the bottom. Remember to build first with Ctrl-Shift-B!

Setting up a new repo

git remote add parent https://github.com/bafolts/terraforming-mars.git

Undo merge conflicts: git merge --abort
Check out remote branch: git checkout --track origin/master
Git squarsh.

Renaming a branch

git branch -m old_branch new_branch         # Rename branch locally    
git push origin :old_branch                 # Delete the old branch    
git push --set-upstream origin new_branch   # Push the new branch, set local branch to track the new remote

Steps to sync with parent:

git checkout master
git pull parent master
git push origin master
git checkout ares
git pull parent ares
git push origin ares

If there are any conflicts, it’s a bad sign.

my workspace settings look like this atm: "workbench.colorTheme": "Visual Studio Dark", "diffEditor.ignoreTrimWhitespace": false, "tsimporter.doubleQuotes": true, "npm.exclude": "", "javascript.preferences.quoteStyle": "double", "typescript.preferences.quoteStyle": "double", "editor.tabSize": 4, "typescriptHero.imports.stringQuoteStyle": """, "typescriptHero.imports.grouping": ["Plains", "Modules", "Workspace"], // PRETTIER enable formatOnSave to start it "editor.formatOnSave": false, "[typescript]": { "editor.defaultFormatter": "esbenp.prettier-vscode" }, "prettier.tabWidth": 4, "prettier.quoteProps": "preserve",

vue devtools for chrome does help when you want debug state and props, so highly recommended The creator of the project Brian decided to avoid heavy dependancies on libraries so a lot of core functionality is hardcore raw coding (see server.ts). I personally like the approach of use only what you need
