This repository is for discussion and development of the W3C Web of Things (WoT) Binding Templates document.

Binding Templates document is made of multiple subspecifications that each describe the use of a protocol, media type or platform. For convenience purposes, the currently available Editor's Draft of subspecifications are linked below:

Please also look at https://w3c.github.io/wot-binding-templates/#protocol-intro for additional information.

Some HTML files are automatically rendered from RDF sources. To render them, install Node.js (if necessary) and run:

$ npm i # to do once to install dependencies
$ node render.js

This rendering process is mandated through the use of a Husky pre-commit hook. Make sure to run npm install first to install husky in the first place.

Many information about a spec can be obtained from Specberus hosted by the W3C. Below are some requests that are usually useful:

Please use EditorConfig by installing a plugin for your favorite editor. This detects the .editorconfig file and adjusts your IDE's behavior regarding indentation, line endings and more. Additionally, please adjust your IDE to use 120 line length, where each line that is longer than 120 should be continued in the following line.

If you do not wish to use EditorConfig, please set the following settings in your editor:

• Indentation Style: space
• Indentation Size: 4
• End of Line: lf
• Charset: utf-8
