Create code guidelines for contributions

[GarthDB]

From something @terracomma mentioned in another issue.

Just some initial thoughts.

All custom pages need to:

• scale responsively on small screens
• be optimized for performance (let's use Pagespeed Insights)
• use structured data (I think http://schema.org/ would be best)
• include the comments section
• include site navigation Create universal navigation block #77

I've never used schema.org before. What are the advantages of that vs carefully chosen tags?

[GarthDB]

You can apply it to any tags as attributes. It just is more semantic than HTML alone and search engines use it to better understand the structure of a website.

Sounds good, I'll start reading up on it.

@terracomma good place to start https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/99170?hl=en

We should probably declare our browser support too. I suggest current -2 for Chrome, FF and Safari.

[GarthDB]

good call
I don't have ie to test
but we would accept contributions on it.

[GarthDB]

I don't mind being a bit more bleeding edge.

[Moodycomputer]

I agree. If someone wants to IE fix all our stuff, by all means we'll accept it. But I would love to not write it myself.
