How to Contribute?

  • Please create a separate branch(with appropriate name) and send pull request.
  • Your branch name should be specific to your changes/features. Say for example if you added a new view & a template to show project details, name it as new_project_template.
  • Your code and changes should be properly commented.
  • Don’t change models. If you feel that it is a necessity, please raise an issue first. Let others know why you feel it is important(Others work may be based of present model and your change will screw their work.)
  • I like small & specific changes. So don’t send variety of changes in one go.
