Contributing code

Greasy Fork is open source (GPLv3), so we welcome code contributions. Any contribution is good, but the following tips will make your contribution more useful.

• Use GitHub’s pull request feature to propose changes.
• Test your changes locally – see Running Greasy Fork locally.
• Run unit tests (or even better, add more!) – bundle exec rake test.
• If you’re making changes to any assets (JavaScript or CSS), they need to be precompiled to have an effect on production servers. Run shellscripts/precompile.sh to precompile.
• Try to follow the code style already in code already committed.
  • Use tabs.
  • Avoid trailing spaces – blank lines should contain no other spaces.
  • Use explicit returns and return as soon as possible.
