Status Quo Components
All components in Quo should be independent of the app state. They should be pure
and easy to reason about. Avoiding the app state is also required to make the library
independent and easy to be pulled off as a separate repository when needed.
To avoid high coupling and direct use of internal styling, the components should be
exported via namespace quo.core
and used by the Status app only from there. This will
allow a more flexible way to update components without possible breakages into the
app style.
Quo components should not have any dependency on the Status app, this will avoid circular dependency and also benefit the independence of the components.
All components are stored inside components
namespaces. They are stateless and do
not dispatch and subscribe to re-frame database. All state should be passed by props
and all events can be passed as functions. Avoiding direct connection with re-frame
will allow components to grow and be reused in different places without the
conditionals hell.
All style system constants are stored inside design-system
namespaces. They are used
to build components and can be directly required by the status app. Avoid
duplication of these vars and do not use them in code directly as a value.
For each component introduced, add previews of all possible states.
Do not introduce components for slightly modified existing components, if they are not a part of the design system. In case they are required in one place in the app, use style override.
Code style
Ensure that your changes match the style of the rest of the code.
This library uses Clojure Community code style The Clojure Style Guide.
To ensure consistency, run make lint
, which uses the clj-kondo linter.
Best practices
- Design components atomically and compose them into bigger components.
- Do not export individual atoms, only components. This way we can limit design system to be used in too many way which can creating disjointed experiences.
- Avoid external margins for atom components, it can be added on the wrapper where they are used but can't be removed without overriding. Max Stoiber article on margins
- Design reusable components into Layout Isolated Components (Article more relates to web, but ideas fits also to mobile development)
- Explicit is better than implicit, do not rely on platform default, if you expect a specific value, then override it
TBD:
- Components documentation
- Check props using spec in pre conditions.
