So, you want to contribute to this project! That's awesome. However, before doing so, please read the following simple steps how to contribute. This will make the life easier and will avoid wasting time on things which are not requested.
-
First of all, open an issue in the repository, using the bug tracker, describing the contribution you would like to make, the bug you found or any other ideas you have. This will help us to get you started on the right foot.
-
If it makes sense, add the platform and software information (e.g. operating system, Node.JS version etc.), screenshots (so we can see what you are seeing).
-
It is recommended to wait for feedback before continuing to next steps. However, if the issue is clear (e.g. a typo) and the fix is simple, you can continue and fix it.
-
Fork the project in your account and create a branch with your fix:
some-great-feature
orsome-issue-fix
. -
Commit your changes in that branch, if the project has a command to format and check code style (you'll most likely find it in
package.json
) - use it. -
If the project contains a
package.json
or abower.json
file add yourself in thecontributors
array (orauthors
in the case ofbower.json
; if the array does not exist, create it):{ "contributors": [ "John Doe <john@doe.com> (https://johndoe.com)" ] }
-
Open a pull request, and reference the initial issue in the pull request message (e.g. fixes #). Write a good description and title, so everybody will know what is fixed/improved.
-
If it makes sense, add screenshots, gifs etc., so it is easier to see what is going on.
Before accepting your contributions, we will review them. You may get feedback about what should be fixed in your modified code. If so, just keep committing in your branch and the pull request will be updated automatically.
Contributions are more than welcome!
