## Contributing
|
||
|
|
||
|
Contributions to the math.js library are very welcome! We can't do this alone. You can contribute in different ways: spread the word, report bugs, come up with ideas and suggestions, and contribute to the code.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### What can I do?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Search through the [issues](https://github.com/josdejong/mathjs/issues) looking for bugs that you can help fix, or look at [discussions/ideas](https://github.com/josdejong/mathjs/discussions/categories/ideas) to see if there is an idea for a new feature that that looks interesting to pick up.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### There are a few preferences regarding code contributions:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- The code of math.js follows the JavaScript Standard Style as described on https://standardjs.com/, powered by `eslint`. Run `npm run lint` to test, and `npm run format` to automatically adjust your code to the code style.
|
||
|
- Make sure you properly unit test your changes.
|
||
|
- Before creating a pull request, run the unit tests to make sure they all pass.
|
||
|
- Only commit changes done in the source files under `src`, not to the generated builds
|
||
|
which are located in the folders `dist` and `lib`.
|
||
|
- Send pull requests to the `develop` branch, not the `master` branch.
|
||
