## Development guidelines
* **public** - directory should be dedicated only to compiled/copied files from **src** - directory.
It should be possible to delete directory completely and after **npm start** or **npm run build** everything should be as they were before the deletion.
* All backend dependencies should be installed with **npm**. Browser dependencies should be installed with **bower** or with **npm**.
#### Directory structure
**public** - directory should be dedicated only to compiled/copied files from **src** - directory.
It should be possible to delete directory completely and after **npm start** or **npm run build** everything should be as they were before the deletion.
#### Dependencies
All dependencies are meant to be installed with **bower** or with **npm**.
* JavaScript-files from both **bower_components** and **node_modules** can be *require()*'d in client-side modules.
* CSS files can be [imported](https://learnboost.github.io/stylus/docs/import.html) from **bower_components** and **node_modules** using relative path from the stylus file to the css file e.g `@import '../../bower_components/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css'`
* You can either create a new gulp task for copying other assets from directories mentioned above or use an array as a value for [assets sources](https://github.com/leonidas/gulp-project-template/blob/master/gulpfile.js#L38) e.g `source: ['./src/assets/**/*.*', 'bower_components/bootstrap/fonts*/*.*']` *(notice the asterisk after 'fonts'? It makes gulp copy the whole directory instead of just the files inside of it)*
## Suggested development tools
* [eslint](http://eslint.org/)
* When used as an editor plugin (for example. [SublimeLinter](http://sublimelinter.readthedocs.org/en/latest/) + [SublimeLinter-eslint](https://github.com/roadhump/SublimeLinter-eslint)), gives you immediate feedback about your code and can find bugs, potential problem areas, poor coding styles and stylistic issues.
