JavaScript Coding Standards

Introduction

For our JavaScript code, we chose to follow the well-detailed and documented Airbnb JavaScript Style Guide. Code should be written in ECMAScript 6 and Babel will transpile it into ECMAScript 5 for a wider browser compatibility.

Some noteworthy rules:

• Always use semicolons at the end of an instruction.

• Use soft tabulations with two spaces to indent.

• Use braces with all multi-line blocks.

(function () {
  if (test) {
    return false;
  }
}());

Do not hesitate to look at their complete documentation.
