Contributing Guide

Hi! I'm really excited that you are interested in contributing to this project. Before submitting your contribution, please make sure to take a moment and read through the following guidelines:

Issue Reporting Guidelines

  • Report a new issue either through GitHub or Email
  • Please include with your issue the browser and operating system you're using as well as steps necessary to reproduce the bug, if any
  • Be patient, I'm working on this project in my spare time :-)

Pull Request Guidelines

  • The main branch is what is currently deployed to the website. All development should be done in dedicated branches.

  • Work in the src folder and DO NOT checkin dist in the commits.

  • It's OK to have multiple small commits as you work on the PR - GitHub will automatically squash it before merging.

  • If adding a new feature:

    • Provide a convincing reason to add this feature. Ideally, you should open a suggestion issue first before working on it.
    • Feel free to write a test for it, but so far I didn't have time for that.

  • If fixing a bug:

    • If you are resolving a special issue, add (fix #xxxx[,#xxxx]) (#xxxx is the issue id) in your PR title for a better release log, e.g. update entities encoding/decoding (fix #3899).
    • Provide a detailed description of the bug in the PR. Live demo preferred.

Development Setup

You will need Node.js version 8+ and a Chrome browser.
