⚠️ IMPORTANT: READ THIS

We’ll be developing the Technovit’25 website collaboratively using Next.js with pnpm as the package manager. Follow these steps to contribute and ensure smooth, conflict-free development.

Getting Started

1. Fork the Repository Fork the main repository to your own GitHub account: https://github.com/a2ys/technovit25

2. Clone Your Fork

   git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/technovit25.git
   cd technovit25

3. Set Upstream Remote

   git remote add upstream https://github.com/a2ys/technovit25.git

4. Install Dependencies

   pnpm install

Working on Issues

• All tasks will be listed as GitHub Issues under the main repository.
• Pick an issue assigned to you (or comment to get assigned).
• Do not work on unassigned issues to avoid duplication.
• Limit each pull request to changes in no more than 2–3 files to keep reviews quick and clean.

Workflow

1. Create a New Branch

   git checkout -b <issue-number>-<short-description>

   Example:

   git checkout -b 12-fix-navbar

2. Make Changes

   • Work only on files relevant to your issue.
   • Ensure code is formatted and functional locally before committing.

3. Commit Changes

   git add .
   git commit -m "Fix: <short description of change> (#issue-number)"

4. Sync with Upstream (Before Pushing)

   git fetch upstream
   git merge upstream/development

5. Push to Your Fork

   git push origin <branch-name>

6. Open a Pull Request

   • Base branch: development
   • Compare: your feature branch
   • Link your PR to the corresponding Issue Number

Good Practices

• Always pull from upstream/development before starting new work.
• Keep your PRs small and focused.
• Write clear commit messages.
• If you face merge conflicts, resolve them locally before pushing.
