Normative Standards

Code of Conduct

Our Code of Conduct is a guide to make it easier to enrich all of us and the technical communities in which we participate.

Feedback Specification

This feedback specification can inform you of how to write an effective feedback report and help us improve communication efficiency.

Contributing Specification

We appreciate small, focused PRs. If you'd like to make an extremely large change, please communicate with team members prior to a pull request. Here's a writeup that details why this is so critical for us to work well on this team. Please understand that though we always appreciate contributions, ultimately we have to prioritize what works best for the project as a whole.

What You Can Do

Contribute Code

As with any project, there are rules to contributing. To ensure that we can help you or accept your pull request as quickly as possible, please read the contributing guide.

After that, you'll be ready to contribute to Fresns core repositories:

• Fresns: the core library
• Plugins: officially developed extension plugins
• Themes: officially developed website themes repository

...as well as many smaller official companion libraries.

Share (and Build) Your Experience

Apart from answering questions and sharing resources in the Community, there are a few other less obvious ways to share and extend what you know:

• Develop learning materials. It's often said that the best way to learn is to teach. If there's something interesting you're doing with Fresns, strengthen your expertise by writing a blog post, developing a workshop, or even publishing a gist that you share on social media.
• Watch a repo you care about. This will send you notifications whenever there's activity in that repository, giving you insider knowledge about ongoing discussions and upcoming features. It's a fantastic way to build expertise so that you're eventually able to help address issues and pull requests.
