This project has adopted the code of conduct defined by the Contributor Covenant to clarify expected behavior in our community. For more information see the .NET Foundation Code of Conduct.

This project uses GitHub flow for pull requests.
So if you want to contribute, fork the repo, preferably create a local branch, based off of the dev
branch to avoid conflicts with other activities, fix an issue, and send a PR.
If you are new to git, here is a guide to forking and cloning a repository.
Pull requests are code reviewed. Here is a checklist you should tick through before submitting a pull request:
- Here is a checklist you should tick through before submitting a pull request:
- Implementation is clean
- Code adheres to the existing coding standards; e.g. no curlies for one-line blocks, no redundant empty lines between methods or code blocks, spaces rather than tabs, etc. Full conventions can be found here.
- There is proper unit test coverage
- If the code is copied from StackOverflow (or a blog or OSS) full disclosure is included. That includes required license files and/or file headers explaining where the code came from with proper attribution
- There are very few or no comments (because comments shouldn't be needed if you write clean code)
- XML documentation is added/updated for the addition/change
- Your PR is (re)based on top of the latest commits from the
dev
branch (more info below) - Link to the issue(s) you're fixing from your PR description. Use
fixes #<the issue number>
- Readme is updated if you change an existing feature or add a new one
Please rebase your code on top of the latest dev
branch commits.
Before working on your fork make sure you pull the latest so you work on top of the latest commits to avoid merge conflicts.
Also before sending the pull request please rebase your code as there is a chance there have been new commits pushed after you pulled last.
Please refer to this guide if you're new to git.
