How to contribute

I'm really glad you're reading this, because we need volunteer developers to help this project become better.

Submitting changes

Please send a GitHub Pull Request with a clear list of what you've done (read more about pull requests). Please follow our coding conventions (below) and make sure all of your commits are atomic (one feature per commit) (optional).

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."

Coding conventions

Start reading our code and you'll get the hang of it. We optimize for readability:

  • We indent using single tab
  • We ALWAYS put spaces after list items and method parameters ([1, 2, 3], not [1,2,3]), around operators (x += 1, not x+=1), and so on.
  • Try to make your code less resource intensive as possible, ROM and RAM of an ESP is quite limited
  • This is open source software. Consider the people who will read your code, and make it look nice for them. It's sort of like driving a car: Perhaps you love doing donuts when you're alone, but with passengers the goal is to make the ride as smooth as possible.
