🛠 Recommended Toolchain

To streamline development and align with project conventions, we recommend the following setup — especially for contributors without a strong existing preference.

Tool	Description
VSCodium	Fully open-source alternative to VS Code (telemetry-free)
Prettier	Code formatter for JS, TS, Svelte, Markdown, etc.
ESLint	JavaScript/TypeScript linter with Svelte support
Stylelint	Linting for CSS, SCSS, and inline styles in Svelte
markdownlint	Markdown style checker and linter
markdownlint-cli2	Config-based CLI linter for Markdown
EditorConfig	Consistent line endings, spacing, and indentation
Volta / nvm	Node.js version manager for consistent tooling

The .vscode/ folder includes editor recommendations compatible with VSCodium. These are non-enforced and optional, but align with our formatter, linter, and language server configs.

Install dev tooling:

npm install --include=dev

Run all format and lint checks:

npm run lint:all
npm run format

To auto-fix issues:

npm run lint:fix
npm run format:fix

⚙️ Tooling Configuration

All linting, formatting, and version settings are defined in versioned project config files:

File	Purpose
.prettierrc	Prettier formatting rules
.prettierignore	Files that should be ignored by Prettier
eslint.config.mjs	ESLint config with SvelteKit support
stylelint.config.js	CSS/SASS/Svelte style rules
.stylelintignore	Files that should be ignored by Stylelint
.editorconfig	Base indentation and line ending settings
.nvmrc, .node-version	Node.js version constraints for nvm, asdf, and Volta
.vscode/extensions.json	Suggested extensions for VSCodium
.vscode/settings.json	Default workspace settings (non-binding)
.vscode/customData.json	Custom CSS data for FontAwesome classes
cspell.json	Custom words and exclusions for spell checking

These are the same rules used by CI and automation, so aligning your local setup avoids surprises later.

Note: .vscode/extensions.json defines a minimal recommended dev stack for VSCodium / VS Code. These extensions are optional but thoughtfully curated to improve developer experience without introducing bloat.
