To run component library locally

To run locally, do the following:

• Create a fork and clone the project
• npm install
• Run npm link to auto-run the "prepare" script in package.json
• In consumer project/app, run npm link ytel-ui. This will create a symbolic link from the component library src to the consumer projecct.
• Import components with pattern import { ComponentName } from 'ytel-ui';

To run documentation locally

Documentation for component library currently uses docz which provides a few helpful out-of-the-box components, such as auto-generate a props table and "playground" component for rendering a component. Docz uses mdx (a flavor of markdown) for rendering JSX inside of markdown. Any .mdx file is a documentation file for a corresponding component.

• Create a fork and clone the project (skip if already done so)
• npm install
• Run npm run docs:dev to build documentation
• Run npm run docs:build for a production-ready build
• Run npm run docs:copy to copy production docs build from docs-build directory into public directory.
• The .gitlab.ci.yml file already expects the public folder to be populated with the production build.

Currently, the above scripts are done by hand and not by .gitlabe.ci.yml file because docz sometimes has a tendancy to double copy the public path inside of docs-build directory.
