Link Your PR to Your Issue

When you submit a PR, link it to the related issue. See .

Auto-Close Your Issue Via Commit Message

Put "Fixes #123" or "Resolves #456" into any commit message that's part of your PR. That will auto-close the related issue when the PR is merged.

See for more info.

Minimize File Sizes

If your PR adds any graphics or other non-code files to the project, do your best to keep the files as small as possible. More info:

Use Yarn to Install Packages

If you ever need to install a new dependency into the project, install it via yarn add instead of npm install. This will update the project's package.json and yarn.lock files.
