Goals

• A single style for our projects and others
• Minimize customization - Any decided-upon style is better than one we can bikeshed
• Minimize friction - Instead of warnings, sources are formatted automatically on commit and on save inside your editor
• Minimize files - These three or four files need only be at the top level of the monorepo... nothign in the subdirs

Why X?

• Prettier, no semicolons - Because you don't need them and they add unnecessary visual clutter. Prettier will figure out when they're needed for you.

I bundled these up into groups and wrote some thoughts about why I ask them!

If these helped you, I'd love to hear about it!! I'm on twitter @vcarl_ or send me an email carl.vitullo@gmail.com

Onboarding and the workplace

https://blog.vcarl.com/interview-questions-onboarding-workplace/

• How long will it take to deploy my first change? To become productive? To understand the codebase?
• What kind of equipment will I be provided? Will the company pay/reimburse me if I want something specific?
