Contributing

Before you contribute

File an issue first!

If you see a bug or have an idea for a feature that you feel would improve the repo, please file an issue before you begin coding or send a PR. This will help prevent duplicate work by letting us know what you're up to. It will help avoid a situation in which you spend a lot of time coding something that's not quite right for the repo or its goals.

Issue Submission Guidelines

Before you submit your issue search the archive, maybe your question was already answered.

If your issue appears to be a bug, and hasn't been reported, open a new issue. Help us to maximize the effort we can spend fixing issues and adding new features, by not reporting duplicate issues.

The "new issue" form contains a number of prompts that you should fill out to make it easier to understand and categorize the issue.

Pull Request Submission Guidelines

Before you submit your pull request consider the following guidelines:

  • First check whether there is an open Issue for what you will be working on. If there is not, open one up by going through issue submission guidelines.

  • Search for an open or closed Pull Request that relates to your submission. You don't want to duplicate effort.

  • Make your changes in a new git branch:

      git checkout -b name-issue-tracker-short-description

    Name can be initials or GitHub username. An example of this could be:

      git checkout -b joshsmith-issue-75-screen-overflow-fix master

Git Commit Guidelines

Write meaningful commit messages. This will help understand your contribution better.

Lastly, be nice to other people and help them out however you can.
