Robot school is a generic rails app intended for front end caveman learning.
The greatest of the front end frontier reside here.
The structure of the assets/stylesheets folder borrows heavily from The Sass Way and Github's CSS Styleguide. Robot School's hierarchy follows a similar pattern:
Stylesheets
- Globals : anything original and pure sass (vars/mixins)
- Partials : anything else, up to you how it's structured
- Vendor : 3rd party stuffs
application.css.scss : the manifest for everything
Within app/assets/stylesheets is a proprietary vendor directory. This directory features some of the universe's favorite UI frameworks, not as gems, but as mooshy, flexible SCSS manifests. Why? This way you can pick and choose, mix and match library components. Edit variables, fuck up mixins, the front end framework is your hackable oyster.
Pick any library you want by commenting in/out its manifest under the // Vendor sub heading in application.css.scss.
Appropriated from the "Official Sass port of Bootstrap", this ported library lives in the bootstrap directory within stylesheets/vendor. Pick and choose your favorite parts within the bootstrap.scss manifest.
Be warned, its dependent fonts are locateds in assets/fonts. Hackery!
Ripped directly from ZURB's Foundation Repo, the foundation directory within stylesheets/vendor has an SCSS manifest that references all components of the framework. Comment out what you don't want to use.
