electron-react-boilerplate / rfcs Goto Github PK

An experimental repository for collecting electron-react-boilerplate (ERB) RFCs. ERB RFCs are proposals to alter ERB, erb-cli, or the site. They are meant to gather feedback and collect constraints, as well as to bikeshed various options.

The text below is preliminary. We've not really done any RFCs yet and we don't quite know what process we want. The idea is to start off with a few "seed RFCs" and gain experience before we start fielding many RFCs.

First, hop onto the ERB Gitter channel and run the idea by somebody in the ERB core team. If there is general agreement that the idea is worth pursuing, then you can go ahead and open a PR that adds a new file to the accepted directory, starting from the template. Tag the PR with a subject line like "[WIP] My great idea". Opening early helps make the process more collaborative. We can discuss on the PR itself and ultimately reach some sort of consensus.

The intention is for discussion to reach a "general consensus" -- not necessarily about the outcome but about the contours of the solution space. In other words, a general agreement as to the pros and cons of each alternative, if not necessarily the relative importance of those pros and cons. Ulimately, decisions regarding ERB are decided via the ERB core team. The reasoning of those decisions will always be laid out in comments on the RFC itself.

The ERB core team currently consists of @amilajack and @vikr01.
