There are many ways you can get involved with MathLive. Contributing to an open source project is fun and rewarding.
If you're using MathLive consider donating to project development via Patreon (recurring donation) or PayPal (one time donation).
If you are using MathLive in your project, encourage the business partners in your organization to provide financial support of open source projects.
Funds go to general development, support, and infrastructure costs.
We welcome both individual and corporate sponsors. In addition to Patreon and PayPal, we can also accept short-term development contracts for specific features or maintenance of the project.
If you're running into some problems using MathLive or something doesn't behave the way you think it should, please file an issue in GitHub.
Before filing something, have a look at the existing issues. It's better to avoid filing duplicates. You can add a comment to an existing issue if you'd like.
To speed up the resolution of an issue, including a pointer to an executable test case that demonstrates the issue, if applicable.
Sure! Have a look at the issue report, and make sure no one is already working on it. If the issue is assigned to someone, they're on it! Otherwise, add a comment in the issue indicating you'd like to work on resolving the issue and go for it! See the Contributor Guide for coding guidelines.
The test/ folder contains test cases that are used to make sure that
bugs are not introduced as new features are added (regression).
Adding or updating test cases can be very helpful to improve MathLive's quality. Submit an issue indicating what you'd like to work on, and a pull request when you have it ready. Test cases should follow the TAP (Test Anything Protocol) format.
Use the issue tracker to submit requests for new features. First, have a look at what might already be there, and if you don't see anything that matches, write up a new issue.
If you do see something similar to your idea, comment on it or add a 👍.
Whether you have a fix for an issue, some improved test cases, or a brand new feature, we welcome contributions in the form of pull requests. Once submitted, your pull request will be reviewed and you will receive some feedback to make sure that your pull request fits in with
- the roadmap for MathLive
- the architecture of the project
- the coding guidelines of the project
Once your pull request has been accepted, it will be merged into the master branch.
