 ## Introduction
 
 The NodeFlow client is being built with [React](https://react.dev/), a component based web library
+
+## Testing
+
+We use vitest to run frontend tests. You can automatically run the frontend tests by running
+
+```
+npm run test:ci
+```
+
+## Linting
+
+We use eslint as the frontend linter. You can check the current status of your files by running
+
+```
+npm run lint
+```
+
+Supported lint issues can be automatically fixed by running
+
+```
+npx eslint --fix
+```
+
+## Formatting
+
+We use Prettier as the frontend formatter. You can check the formatting of the frontend by running
+
+```
+npm run format:check
+```
+
+and can automatically format the frontend files by running
+
+```
+npm run format
+```
