Electron Documentation Styleguide

Find the appropriate section for your task: reading Electron documentation or writing Electron documentation.

Writing Electron Documentation

These are the ways that we construct the Electron documentation.

• Maximum one h1 title per page.
• Use bash instead of cmd in code blocks (because of syntax highlighter).
• Doc h1 titles should match object name (i.e. browser-window ¡æ BrowserWindow).
  • Hyphen separated filenames, however, are fine.
• No headers following headers, add at least a one-sentence description.
• Methods headers are wrapped in code ticks.
• Event headers are wrapped in single 'quotation' marks.
• No nesting lists more than 2 levels (unfortunately because of markdown renderer).
• Add section titles: Events, Class Methods and Instance Methods.
• Use 'will' over 'would' when describing outcomes.
• Events and methods are h3 headers.
• Optional arguments written as function (required[, optional]).
• Optional arguments are denoted when called out in list.
• Line length is 80-column wrapped.
• Platform specific methods are noted in italics following method header.
• ### `method(foo, bar)` _OS X_

Reading Electron Documentation

Here are some tips for understanding Electron documentation syntax.

Methods

An example of method documentation:

---

methodName(required[, optional]))

• require String, required
• optional Integer

---

The method name is followed by the arguments it takes. Optional arguments are notated by brackets surrounding the optional argument as well as the comma required if this optional argument follows another argument.

Below the method is more detailed information on each of the arguments. The type of argument is notated by either the common types: String, Number, Object, Array or a custom type like Electron's webContent.

Events

An example of event documentation:

---

Event: 'wake-up'

Returns:

• time String

---

The event is a string that is used after a .on listener method. If it returns a value it and its type is noted below. If you were to listen and respond to this event it might look something like this:

Alarm.on('wake-up', function(time) {
  console.log(time)
})
