Contributing

Code of Conduct

This project and repository is governed by Mozilla's code of conduct and etiquette guidelines. For more details please see the CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file.

Bugs

All bugs are tracked in Bugzilla.

Write up a new bug:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Tecken&component=General

If you want to do work for which there is no bug, it's best to write up a bug first. Maybe the ensuing conversation can save you the time and trouble of making changes!

Pull requests

Pull request summary should indicate the bug the pull request addresses. For example:

bug NNNNNNN: removed frob from tree class

Pull request descriptions should cover at least some of the following:

  1. what is the problem the pull request is addressing?
  2. why does this pull request fix the issue?
  3. what did you do to test the changes?
  4. any steps-to-reproduce for the reviewer to use to test the changes
  5. any special instructions or things you want the reviewer to check out

Code reviews

Pull requests should be reviewed before merging.

Style nits should be covered by linting as much as possible.

Code reviews should review the changes in the context of the rest of the system.

Preparing to contribute changes to Tecken

If you're interested in helping out and taking a bug to work on, you need to do the following first:

  1. Set up a working local development environment.
  2. Read through the Tecken docs.

We can't assign bugs to you until you've done at least those two steps.
