# How to contribute to xterm.js

|
## Opening issues
|
|
|
|
The preferred way to report bugs or request features is to use
|
|
[GitHub issues](http://github.com/sourcelair/xterm.js/issues). Before
|
|
opening an issue, read these pointers.
|
|
|
|
### Opening issues effectively
|
|
|
|
- Include information about **the browser in which the problem occurred**. Even
|
|
if you tested several browsers, and the problem occurred in all of them,
|
|
mention this fact in the bug report. Also include browser version numbers and
|
|
the operating system that you're on.
|
|
|
|
- Mention which release of xterm.js you're using. Preferably, try also with
|
|
the current HEAD of the master branch, to ensure the problem has not already been
|
|
fixed.
|
|
|
|
- Mention precisely what went wrong. What did you expect to happen? What happened instead? Describe the
|
|
exact steps a maintainer has to take to make the problem occur.
|
|
|
|
- If the problem can not be reproduced in the [demo of xterm.js](README.md#demo), please provide an HTML document that demonstrates the problem.
|
|
|
|
- Be polite. Issues with an indignant or belligerent tone tend to be moved to the
|
|
bottom of the pile.
|
|
|
|
## Contributing code
|
|
|
|
- Make sure you have a [GitHub account](https://github.com/join)
|
|
- Fork [xterm.js](https://github.com/sourcelair/xterm.js/)
|
|
([how to fork a repo](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo))
|
|
- Make your changes
|
|
- If your changes are easy to test or likely to regress, add tests. Tests go into `test`, directory.
|
|
- Follow the general code style of the rest of the project (see below).
|
|
- Submit a pull request
|
|
([how to create a pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo)).
|
|
Don't put more than one feature/fix in a single pull request.
|
|
|
|

|

|
|
