# :handshake: Contributing
This document outlines some of the guidelines that we try and adhere to while
working on this project.
> :point_right: **Note**: before participating in the community, please read our
> [Code of Conduct][coc].
> By interacting with this repository, organization, or community you agree to
> abide by our Code of Conduct.
>
> Additionally, if you contribute **any source code** to this repository, you

## :lady_beetle: Issue submission
When [submitting an issue][issues] or bug report,
please follow these guidelines:
* Provide as much information as possible (logs, metrics, screenshots,
runtime environment, etc).
* Ensure that you are running on the latest stable version (tagged), or
when using `master`, provide the specific commit being used.
* Provide the minimum needed viable source to replicate the problem.
## :bulb: Feature requests
When [submitting a feature request][issues], please
follow these guidelines:
* Does this feature benefit others? or just your usecase? If the latter,
it will likely be declined, unless it has a more broad benefit to others.
* Please include the pros and cons of the feature.
* If possible, describe how the feature would work, and any diagrams/mock
examples of what the feature would look like.
## :rocket: Pull requests
To review what is currently being worked on, or looked into, feel free to head
over to the [open pull requests][pull-requests] or [issues list][issues].
## :raised_back_of_hand: Assistance with discussions
* Take a look at the [open discussions][discussions], and if you feel like
you'd like to help out other members of the community, it would be much
appreciated!
## :pushpin: Guidelines
### :test_tube: Language agnostic
Below are a few guidelines if you would like to contribute:
* If the feature is large or the bugfix has potential breaking changes,
please open an issue first to ensure the changes go down the best path.
* If possible, break the changes into smaller PRs. Pull requests should be
focused on a specific feature/fix.
* Pull requests will only be accepted with sufficient documentation
describing the new functionality/fixes.
* Keep the code simple where possible. Code that is smaller/more compact
does not mean better. Don't do magic behind the scenes.
* Use the same formatting/styling/structure as existing code.
* Follow idioms and community-best-practices of the related language,
unless the previous above guidelines override what the community
recommends.
* Always test your changes, both the features/fixes being implemented, but
also in the standard way that a user would use the project (not just
your configuration that fixes your issue).
* Only use 3rd party libraries when necessary. If only a small portion of
the library is needed, simply rewrite it within the library to prevent
useless imports.
### :hamster: Golang
* See [golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments](https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/CodeReviewComments)
* This project uses [golangci-lint](https://golangci-lint.run/) for
Go-related files. This should be available for any editor that supports
`gopls`, however you can also run it locally with `golangci-lint run`
after installing it.
