# How to Contribute #
We're always looking for people to help make Radarr even better, there are a number of ways to contribute.
## Documentation ##
Setup guides, FAQ, the more information we have on the [wiki](https://wiki.servarr.com/Radarr) the better.
## Development ##
### Tools required ###
- Visual Studio 2019 or higher (https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/). The community version is free and works (https://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/).
- HTML/Javascript editor of choice (VS Code/Sublime Text/Webstorm/Atom/etc)
- [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)
- [NodeJS](https://nodejs.org/en/download/) (Node 10.X.X or higher)
- [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/)
- .NET Core 3.1.
### Getting started ###
1. Fork Radarr
2. Clone the repository into your development machine. [*info*](https://help.github.com/articles/working-with-repositories)
3. Install the required Node Packages `yarn install`
4. Start gulp to monitor your dev environment for any changes that need post processing using `yarn start` command.
5. Build the project in Visual Studio, Setting startup project to `Radarr.Console` and framework to `netcoreapp31`
6. Debug the project in Visual Studio
7. Open http://localhost:8686
### Contributing Code ###
- If you're adding a new, already requested feature, please comment on [Github Issues](https://github.com/Radarr/Radarr/issues "Github Issues") so work is not duplicated (If you want to add something not already on there, please talk to us first)
- Rebase from Radarr's develop branch, don't merge
- Make meaningful commits, or squash them
- Feel free to make a pull request before work is complete, this will let us see where its at and make comments/suggest improvements
- Reach out to us on the discord if you have any questions
- Add tests (unit/integration)
- Commit with *nix line endings for consistency (We checkout Windows and commit *nix)
- One feature/bug fix per pull request to keep things clean and easy to understand
- Use 4 spaces instead of tabs, this is the default for VS 2019 and WebStorm (to my knowledge)
### Pull Requesting ###
- Only make pull requests to develop, never master, if you make a PR to master we'll comment on it and close it
- You're probably going to get some comments or questions from us, they will be to ensure consistency and maintainability
- We'll try to respond to pull requests as soon as possible, if its been a day or two, please reach out to us, we may have missed it
- Each PR should come from its own [feature branch](http://martinfowler.com/bliki/FeatureBranch.html) not develop in your fork, it should have a meaningful branch name (what is being added/fixed)
- new-feature (Good)
- fix-bug (Good)
- patch (Bad)
- develop (Bad)
If you have any questions about any of this, please let us know.
