I'm really glad you're reading this, because we need volunteer developers to help this project come to fruition.
If you haven't already, come find us in IRC (#opengovernment on freenode). We want you working on things you're excited about.
Here are some important resources:
- YAGA Website tells you something about us,
- YAGA leaflet-ng2 module website gives you all information about the module including examples coverage and browser-tests
- Issues to get a list of known issues or to add one.
We serve a high test-coverage and unit test most of our code. You must test your contribution against the existing tests and you should write additional test, when you have a new feature or found a bug.
Please send a GitHub Pull Request to opengovernment with a clear list of what you've done (read more about pull requests). When you send a pull request, we will love you forever if you include tests and examples. We can always use more test coverage. Please follow our coding conventions (below) and make sure all of your commits are atomic.
Always write a clear log message for your commits. One-line messages are fine for small changes, but bigger changes should look like this:
$ git commit -m "A brief summary of the commit
>
> A paragraph describing what changed and its impact."
Consider opening an issue before making a big change, to prevent developing things twice. In addition you can involve our team in an early stage, so we are able to guide you.
Start reading our code and you'll get the hang of it. The main acceptance criteria is fulfilling our linting rules.
Thanks, The YAGA Development Team
