|
||||
We welcome contributions! Please follow these guidelines:
|
||||
|
||||
### Development Workflow
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Pull the latest changes** before starting work
|
||||
2. **Create a feature branch** for your changes
|
||||
3. **Follow existing patterns** in the codebase
|
||||
4. **Run linting** before committing (`bun run lint`)
|
||||
5. **Test your changes** thoroughly
|
||||
|
||||
### Code Style
|
||||
|
||||
- TypeScript throughout with strict typing
|
||||
- Use existing shadcn/ui components over custom implementations
|
||||
- Follow the slice pattern for store actions
|
||||
- Keep components focused and extract to separate files when >50 lines
|
||||
|
||||
### Adding New Features
|
||||
|
