## Contribute documentation ## Contribute documentation
Documentation is a super important, critical part of this project. Docs are how we keep track of what we're doing, how, and why. It's how we stay on the same page about our policies. And it's how we tell others everything they need in order to be able to use this project or contribute to it. So thank you in advance.

The main difference between code contributions and documentation contributions is that contributing code requires inclusion of relevant tests for the code being added or changed. Contributions without accompanying tests will be held off until a test is added, unless the maintainers consider the specific tests to be either impossible, or way too much of a burden for such a contribution.

**Learn more about how to work with the repository:**
- To implement new features or fix bugs, you need to make changes to the `.ts` files, which are located in the `src` folder
- To comply with the code style, **you need to run the `format` script**
- To compile source code to `javascript` we use [NCC](https://github.com/vercel/ncc). **It is very important to run the `build` script after making changes**, otherwise your changes will not get into the final `javascript` build
- You can also start formatting, building code, and testing with a single `pre-checkin` command
**Learn more about how to implement tests:**
Adding or changing tests is an integral part of making a change to the code. The tests are located in the `__tests__` folder and cover most of the functionality of the repository.
- The contributor can add various types of tests (like unit tests or end-to-end tests), which, in his opinion, will be necessary and sufficient for testing new or changed functionality
- Tests should cover a successful execution, as well as some edge cases and possible errors
- As already mentioned, pull requests without tests will be considered more carefully by maintainers. If you are sure that in this situation the tests are not needed or cannot be implemented with a commensurate effort - please add this clarification message to your pull request
**Once you've filed the pull request:** **Once you've filed the pull request:**
- CI will start automatically with some checks. Wait for the end of the execution and make sure that all checks passed successfully. If some checks fail, you can make changes to your code - CI will start automatically with some checks. Wait for the end of the execution and make sure that all checks passed successfully.

## Review pull requests ## Review pull requests
Another great way to contribute is pull request reviews. Please, be extra kind: people who submit code/doc contributions are putting themselves in a pretty vulnerable position, and have put time and care into what they've done (even if that's not obvious to you!) -- always respond with respect, be understanding, but don't feel like you need to sacrifice your standards for their sake, either.
