How to Contribute

We're always looking for people to help make {{{ARRNAME}}} even better, there are a number of ways to contribute.

Documentation

Setup guides, FAQ, the more information we have on the [[{{{ARRNAME}}}|wiki]] the better please contact one of Team {{{ARRNAME}}} for assistance with getting set up with the wiki.

Development

Tools required

- Visual Studio 2019 or higher (https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/). The community version is free and works (https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/).
- HTML/Javascript editor of choice (VS Code/Sublime Text/Webstorm/Atom/etc)
- Git
- NodeJS (Node 10.X.X or higher)
- Yarn
- .NET Core 3.1.

Getting started

1. Fork {{{ARRNAME}}} 2. Clone the repository into your development machine. *info* 3. Install the required Node Packages `yarn install` 4. Start gulp to monitor your dev environment for any changes that need post processing using `yarn start` command. 5. Build the project in Visual Studio, Setting startup project to `{{{ARRNAME}}}.Console` and framework to `netcoreapp31` 6. Debug the project in Visual Studio 7. Open http://localhost:7878

Contributing Code

- If you're adding a new, already requested feature, please comment on Github Issues so work is not duplicated (If you want to add something not already on there, please talk to us first) - Rebase from {{{ARRNAME}}}'s develop branch, don't merge - Make meaningful commits, or squash them - Feel free to make a pull request before work is complete, this will let us see where its at and make comments/suggest improvements - Reach out to us on the discord if you have any questions - Add tests (unit/integration) - Commit with *nix line endings for consistency (We checkout Windows and commit *nix) - One feature/bug fix per pull request to keep things clean and easy to understand - Use 4 spaces instead of tabs, this is the default for VS 2019 and WebStorm (to my knowledge)

Pull Requesting

- Only make pull requests to develop, never master, if you make a PR to master we'll comment on it and close it - You're probably going to get some comments or questions from us, they will be to ensure consistency and maintainability - We'll try to respond to pull requests as soon as possible, if its been a day or two, please reach out to us, we may have missed it - Each PR should come from its own feature branch not develop in your fork, it should have a meaningful branch name (what is being added/fixed)

 - new-feature (Good)
 - fix-bug (Good)
 - patch (Bad)
 - develop (Bad)

If you have any questions about any of this, please let us know.
