Note: If you were expecting to see additional branches here, please see Git Workflow.

Git Workflow

This is my personal project that I'm developing alone and for my own purposes. For that reason, a simplified Git workflow is used here.

The simplified Git workflow contains the following steps:

0. Pull from the remote (optional)
1. Synchronize the unstable branch with the stable branch
2. Make a new branch for a new feature, bugfix, or hotfix from the unstable branch
3. Push branch to the remote
4. Implement the feature, bugfix, or hotfix within the branch
5. Test the feature, bugfix, or hotfix within the branch
6. Synchronize the unstable branch with the stable branch (optional)
7. Synchronize the branch with the unstable branch (optional)
8. Retest the feature, bugfix, or hotfix within the branch (optional)
9. Merge the branch into the unstable branch
10. Merge the unstable branch into the stable branch
11. Make a release within the stable branch
12. Delete the branch
13. Push changes to the remote

Note: The optional steps are needed if you are developing a few features, bugfixes, or hotfixes at the same time.

Notes for developers

1. The project is a React-based single-page application (SPA), but it uses Astro as a bundler, a router, and an alternative for React Helmet. So, formally, the project is an Astro-based website.
2. For compatibility reasons, the project uses Nano Stores state manager, which both works with Astro and React. It allows you to share the state of the web app between the Astro-based and React-based components, and also it's officially recommended by Astro developers.
3. The size of the image for The Open Graph protocol should be 1200x630 pixels.
