Welcome, and thank you for considering contributing to Nest-Init, our open-source project! Your involvement is essential in making this project beneficial for our community.
By reading and following these guidelines, you will help streamline the contribution process, making it more effective for everyone. This demonstrates your respect for the time of the developers who manage and develop this project. In return, we will reciprocate by addressing your issues, assessing changes, and assisting you in finalizing your pull requests.
Contributions are made to this repo via Issues and Pull Requests (PRs). A few general guidelines that cover both:
- Search for existing Issues and PRs before creating your own.
- We work hard to makes sure issues are handled in a timely manner but, depending on the impact, it could take a while to investigate the root cause. A friendly ping in the comment thread to the submitter or a contributor can help draw attention if your issue is blocking.
- If you've never contributed before, see the first timer's guide on Auth0 Blog for resources and tips on how to get started.
Issues should be used to report problems, request a new feature, or to discuss potential changes before a PR is created.
PRs to our repositorties are always welcome and can be a quick way to get your fix or improvement for the project. In general, PRs should:
- Only fix/add the functionality in question.
- Address a single concern in the least number of changed lines as possible.
- Include documentation in the repo for your change.
For changes that address core functionality or would require breaking changes (e.g. a major release), it's best to open an Issue to discuss your proposal first. This is not required but can save time creating and reviewing changes.
In general, we follow the "fork-and-pull" Git workflow
- Fork the repository to your own Github account.

git clone https://github.com/GDGAlgiers/nest-init
