Outliner

Quickly outline the shit out of some stuff!

You can try the current version here: http://outliner.setpixel.com/

Basically, it's for sequencing story ideas as quickly as possible. When you write a story, you can add a bunch of nodes or scenes to quickly outline the idea. Then you can use that as a scaffold when you write the full story/screenplay/document.

ENTER: add a node
TAB: change node type
Arrow up and down: change selection
COMMAND+ Arrow: change order

I'm writing this in all vanilla JS, trying not to use any backend code.

I'm using Google Drive Realtime API, and AWS SDK.

Notes

make sure to npm install and bower install inside the project folder

New Folder Structure

All project files now live in the assets folder.

assets ├── fonts ├── img ├── js └── scss

Using Gulp

$ cd /path/to/outliner  
$ gulp

gulpfile.js lives in /build and takes params from /config the initial gulpfile.js is in the root.

When running gulp a script tag gets added to the index.html for browser reloading, after shutting down gulp the script tag gets removed, be careful when you commits when gulp is running as you might commit the script inside of index.html

Adding a package with bower

$ bower install --save-dev moment
$ cp /bower_components/path/to/js /vendor

Babel

/assets/js/main.js is the main file which imports all of the other .js files

When gulp is ran it will transpile es2015 to es5 and add it to /tmp called main.js

Any js library in /vendor will be concatenated and added to the /tmp folder called vendor.js

These two files are then concatenated and minified and put into public/assets/js/app.min.js

LEARN ES6 and use it now

SCSS

Styles are now located in /assets/scss/

main.scss is the base file which imports all other files.

look at the import structure as the files are now named and relocated

Gulp is using autoprefixer so you can remove any vendor prefixing

File Changes

Removed css,data,js folders

Changed paths for imgs and fonts to new paths located in /public/assets/{fonts,imgs}

Added a .gitignore since we dont need to commit some folders

Google

You probably need to allow localhost:3000 as an allowed referrer if you plan on using the built in server
