OriginalConventionalCommits.org
This repo is the home of the Conventional Commits specification.
Repo Layout
We use HUGO as static site generator, so we use the directory structure HUGO proposes.
Our implementation
./content: contains all the versions of the specification../content/next/: contains the version of the specification (where all the changes SHOULD be made)../content/**/index.[lang].md: contains the content of the specification, if a language is specified it's a translation.
Contributing
We'd love your help refining the language of this specification, fixing typos, or adding more translations. Please don't hesitate to send a pull request.
Adding a translation
- Create a new file in
./content/version/index.[lang].mdusing the hugo commandhugo new [version]/index.[lang].md. - Ensure all files have the appropriate fields required (see others as an example)..
- Add the language to the
config.yamlfile (see others as an example).
Running project locally
There's a docker-compose.yml file ready that will help you to check if the website looks good!
To run it make sure you have docker-compose installed on your machine and just use the command docker-compose up to make it run locally.
Once the website will be compiled, you can see the website visiting http://localhost:1313
