😄Thanks for looking to Contribute on Terribly Broken Website! Here are some guidelines that you need to know.
Contributions can be ideas and pull requests.
- "Ideas" mean that you have not created the feature, but are asking the team to do so. Also called "suggesting, suggestions".
- "Pull requests" mean that you have created the feature yourself, and are asking for team reviews of your changes. Outside of GitHub, also called "Merge requests".
To create a pull request, you'll have to fork the repository to make your changes to.
Next, create a new branch. This allows you to create multiple pull requests without making organization forks. You can call it whatever you want (e.g. bug/fix-55).
Next, commit your changes. A lot of people are expected to use the built-in code editor inside the GitHub web interface.
Optionally, preview your changes. If you like you can use the deployment of GitHub Pages by going to Settings then Pages and deploying your fork temporarily. After your commits have deployed, use the preview link to view your changes (used in syntax https://YOURUSERNAME.github.io/YOURREPONAME (YOURUSERNAME is the GitHub username for your account, YOURREPONAME can be terribly-broken-website or repo name of the fork (they can be different)).
You can also download the index.html file to your computer by clicking here. To run it locally follow the guide here.
Then create your pull request by clicking here and following the steps shown.
To create an idea, you can go to the website and go to Disqus comments.

Then click on the textbox next to your Disqus profile picture, then type in a short explanation and title for your idea. Then click Post.
