# Contributing guidelines
|
|
|
|
We love external contributions!
|
|
|
|
Here are some guidelines to streamline the process.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Before coding
|
|
|
|
If you have a new idea:
|
|
|
|
1. Please check open and closed issues and PRs for relevant discussions
|
|
2. If none exist, raise the topic and discuss to make sure it's aligned with the overall vision and roadmap
|
|
|
|
## Coding
|
|
|
|
1. Fork the repo
|
|
2. Create a branch in your fork (prefer - in naming rather than _)
|
|
3. Implement your changes in your branch
|
|
- Make sure your branch contains changes limited to the scope of the task
|
|
- Dependency updates should be standalone PRs whenever possible
|
|
- Implement tests if applicable
|
|
6. Do a round of manual QA
|
|
8. Update `CHANGELOG.md` if applicable
|
|
9. Update documentation if applicable
|
|
10. Push to your fork's branch, open a PR
|
|
|
|
Trivial fixes (typo, easy-to-fix compilation error, etc.) don't need to go through this process
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Documentation
|
|
|
|
When updating the documentation, test the generated mkdocs site locally.
|
|
|
|
### Setup
|
|
|
|
**Prerequisites**
|
|
|
|
- Python
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install mkdocs
|
|
pip install mkdocs mkdocs-material
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Run
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdocs serve
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Check the console output for a localhost url, most probably something like:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
INFO - [09:41:08] Serving on http://127.0.0.1:8000/bumble-tech/appyx/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Open the url in your browser. Changes are automatically deployed by mkdocs while the server is running.
