HTML Coding Guidelines

We use HTMLHint for checking the quality, linting, and ensuring consistent HTML code standards. There is a .htmlhintrc file in the root of the project, and your editor probably has a plugin available which will show you when you violate these standards.

We employ a set of standards based on the following widely used Idiomatic HTML Guidelines

Note

Our editors of choice are PhpStorm & ATOM which provide useful plugins to make use of these tools. Check out the Editor Setup section of the docs for more information
