An improvement is a code or idea, which makes existing code or design faster, more stable, portable, secure or better in any other way.

Asking Questions

A question is any discussion that is typically neigher a bug, nor feature request or improvement. If you have a question like "How do I do X?" - this paragraph is for you.

Please post your question in your favourite messenger so members of the community could help you. You can also help others!

Your First Code Contribution

Read our C++ Style Guide and start with beginner-friendly issues with JIRA label [good-first-issue] <- click here. Indicate somehow that you are working on this task: get in touch with maintainers team, community or simply assign this issue to yourself.

Pull Requests

  • Fill in the required template

  • End all files with a newline

  • Write tests for new code. Test coverage for new code must be at least 70%

  • Every pull request should be reviewed and get at least two approvals from maintainers team. Check who is a current maintainer in MAINTAINERS.md file

  • When you've finished work make sure that you've got all passing CI checks — after that squash and merge your pull request

  • Follow the C++ Style Guide

  • Follow the Git Style Guide

  • Document new code based on the Documentation Styleguide

  • When working with PRs from forks check this manual

Styleguides

  • Use imperative mood ("Deploy docker to..." not "Deploys docker to...").
  • Write meaningful commit message.
  • Limit the first line of commit message to 50 characters or less
  • First line of commit message must contain summary of work done, second line must contain empty line, third and other lines can contain list of commit changes

C++ Style Guide

Documentation Styleguide

  • Use Doxygen.
