Contributing

General rules

  1. Before writing any code take a look at the existing issues. If none of them is about the changes you want to contribute, open up a new issue. Fixing a typo requires no issue though, just submit a Pull Request.

  2. If you're looking for an open issue to fix, check out labels help wanted and good first issue on GitHub.

  3. If you plan to work on an issue open not by you, write about your intention in the comments before you start working.

Development rules

  1. Follow the GitHub fork & pull request flow.

  2. Make changes to the code.

  3. Make sure the pylinter is happy

  4. Open a pull request, refer to the issue you solve.
