Contribution Guidelines

Read up on our Developer Guide > Coding Style Guide.
When contributing code, create a Merge Request and assign the repository maintainer for review.
We write changelogs in the keep a changelog format. Update the CHANGELOG.md before committing code. Remember that changelogs are meant for humans and should reflect the end-user value.
In case of big changes affecting several services and APIs it might be good to discuss that with the team beforehand. Think about doing a test deployment with all required services.

Recognizing your contribution

You can find the list of contributors at the documentation frontpage.

We use All Contributors to recognize all contributions to AURA, not just code. The list of contributors is automatically updated as part of our release process.
