Contributing

Any improvements or fixes are greatly appreciated, just submit a pull request.

The most important thing if you're interested in contributing, is understanding how the build process and dependencies work. Each package has its own contained build process (through Webpack) and its own dependencies.

For example, due to the way the dependency system works, if you make a change in html, and want to see that change in tests, you have to do:

$ cd html
$ webpack-cli # build changes in html package
$ cd ../epubjs
$ webpack-cli # update epubjs to use new html build
$ cd ../tests
$ webpack-cli # update tests to use new epubjs (and html) build
$ node src/server

The full build command, called from the root repo directory:

$ cd core && webpack-cli && cd ../html && webpack-cli && cd ../epubjs && webpack-cli && cd ../react && webpack-cli && cd ../tests && webpack-cli && cd ../ && node tests/src/server

Note that you should first npm link the appropriate packages to load the locally modified copies.
