Ways to Contribute

No contribution to Beast is too big or too small! We are always happy to see user participation in all of its forms. Here are some of the ways that you can contribute (this is by no means an exhaustive list):

  • Submit a bug report. We love hearing about broken things, so that we can fix them. Any problem is fair game, this includes the documentation examples, tests, and repository as well as the library itself. Bug reports should be opened on the Issues page.

  • Provide feedback. about the library. If you have used, are using, or are thinking about using the library we want to hear about it! The more information you provide, the better we will be able to ensure that Beast meets your needs. You can provide feedback as an issue, or email the author directly.

  • Test Beast. When changes are made, they are submitted as a Pull Request. Everyone is welcome to examine these upcoming changes, test them, and report on the results. This form of quality assurance is very helpful so we can keep delivering a great product. Consider subscribing to repository notifications to get alerted to new pull requests.

  • Code Review on Pull Requests. This is one of the most valuable ways to contribute, because it helps to improve code and features, and helps to find bugs, before the code gets merged. A little bit of time investment from just a few people on each pull request goes a long way to increasing the quality of the final product. For tips on how to participate in pull requests please view the README.md.

  • Use Beast in your next application! At the end of the day, it is the goal of the library to provide utility to users so the best way you can contribute is simply to use the library!
