Thank you for helping us develop VisualEditor!
We inherit the contribution guidelines from VisualEditor core. Be sure to read the
[Contribution guidelines](https://git.wikimedia.org/blob/VisualEditor%2FVisualEditor.git/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
in the VisualEditor repository.

Documented those as a JSDuck singleton, which they but just weren't documented yet. NB: Members of @singleton don't need @static (if present, triggers a compiler warning). * @chainable: Shorthand for "@return this". We were using "@return {classname}" which is ambiguous (returns the same instance or another instance?), @chainable is specifically for "@return this". Creates proper labels in the generated HTML pages. Removed: * @mixin: (not to be confused with @mixins). Not supported by JSDuck. Every class is standalone anyway.

[Configure your wiki](https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:JavaScript_unit_testing) to
allow running of tests. In `LocalSettings.php`, set:

Then open `http://URL_OF_MEDIAWIKI/index.php/Special:JavaScriptTest/qunit`
(for example, <http://localhost/w/index.php/Special:JavaScriptTest/qunit>).
Node-based code linting tests can be run locally using npm run:
<pre lang="bash">
npm install && npm test
</pre>
## Pre-commit hook
A pre-commit git hook script exists which will help flag up any issues and avoid irritating code review steps for you and reviewers. Simply do:
<pre lang="bash">
ln -s bin/pre-commit.sh ../.git/hooks/pre-commit
</pre>
