You can contribute in different ways:
- pick up an issue and do the coding, preferably bugs over features
- increase the test coverage of Kotest itself (but only for real logic)
- improve the documentation
- report bugs
- suggest new features and improvements
- spread the word
Before creating an issue, please make sure that there is no existing issue with the same topic.
The development is done with feature branches such as feature/xxx. Any bug fixes for a particular release should target a release branch such as release/4.6.x.
Project members push directly to branches in the main repository. External contributors work on the according branch in their own clone and issue a pull request.
You can, of course, suggest any change by a pull request, but we suggest that you create an issue first. Creating an issue helps to avoid waste of your time.
We follow the Kotlin Coding Conventions , except the indentation which is only 3 spaces.
- Minimize mutability
- Choose self-explanatory names
