Contributing to LXQt
The LXQt team is always looking for contributors. Everyone is welcome to join, whether they are a developer, translator or user.
Code contributions
LXQt uses Git as a version control system. All our code is available online (https://github.com/lxqt). Pull Requests directly from Github are accepted.
For more information on git, see the official website: https://git-scm.com/
Please make sure you adhere to the project's styleguide when proposing changes.
A more in-depth document for aspiring contributors is located on the LXQt wiki: https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/wiki/Contributing-code
Also see Github's guide on Contributing to Open Source: https://guides.github.com/activities/contributing-to-open-source/
Translations
We use Weblate for all our translations. QtLinguist will still work.
See further instructions in wiki page Translation.
