How can I help?¶

Kanboard is not perfect but there are many ways to help:

Kanboard is translated in many languages. You could improve existing translations or add new ones.

You think something is not clear, there is grammatical errors, typos, anything.

Pull-requests are always welcome. However, to be accepted you have to follow those directives:

Test your changes! Do not introduce regressions.
Before doing any large changes, open a new ticket to start a discussion.
If you want to add a new feature, respect the philosophy behind Kanboard. We focus on simplicity, we don’t want to have a bloated software.
The same apply for the user interface, simplicity and efficiency.
Send only one pull-request for each feature or bug fix.
A smaller pull-request is easier to review and it will be merged faster.
Make sure the unit tests pass.
Respect the coding standards.
Write maintainable code, avoid code duplication, use good practices.
Avoid introducing new dependencies.
