Appwrite CMS is using Svelte and Svelte kit 🌈 If you understand Svelte, you are more than ready to start building components. If you don't, eh, you will figure it out! 😅
Don't be scared, components are tiny HTML, CSS and TS snippets that only uses Svelte to bind data between HTML an JavaScript. To see quick example, you can take a look at our ViewBoolean component.
Notice there are different component types based on their use:
- edit - Used in forms for creating and editing record
- view - Used in detailed page of a record
- list - used in a table of multiple records
They each get exactly the same parameters, so as we all love to do, just copy what is nearby as your starting point 🙈
For design Appwrite CMS uses TailwindCSS. Everything should be in slate colors. Components are exception, they can be colorful. This rule was set to make sure CMS itself does not drag too much attention - content should be colorful.
All code external contributions must go through a pull request and be approved by a core developer team before being merged. This flow ensures a proper review of all the code and increases the quality of the product.
Appwrite CMS truly ❤️ pull requests. Really! I can't wait to virtually shake our hands in a pull request 🤝
