Getting started
In this guide, we'll walk through how to get started with HSDS development.
First, we need to clone the Github repo to your computer. Open up your terminal, and run this command in the directory of your choice:
git clone [email protected]:helpscout/hsds-react.git
Next, go into that directory:
cd hsds-react
And install all the dependencies in the world...
npm install
Great 🌈! You've setup and installed all of HSDS's dependencies.

HSDS's Storybook development environment
HSDS's development environment is powered by Storybook. To fire up HSDS's Storybook, run the following command:
npm start
HSDS's
start
does a neat thing that automatically checks and installs dependencies for you. After the initial npm install
, you most likely don't need to do this anymore when running npm start
💪.Fantastic ✌️! You've got HSDS up and running on your computer.
Create a new
git
branch for your work. You can call it whatever you like (the more descriptive of your work, the better):git checkout -b strong-component
