What You Can Contribute To?

Documentation/Wiki

Found a typo, or something that isn't as clear as it could be? Maybe I've missed something off altogether, or you hit a roadblock that took you a while to figure out. Edit the wiki to add to or improve the documentation. This will help future users get Websurfx up and running more easily.

Readme

Found a typo, or the Readme is not very clear as it should be?. Consider Submitting a Pull request to the Readme to add to or improve the Readme. This will help future users to better understand the project more clearly.

Report a Bug/Issue

If you've found a bug, then please consider raising it as an issue here. This will help me know if there's something that needs fixing. Try and include as much detail as possible, such as your environment, steps to reproduce, any console output and maybe an example screenshot or recording if necessary.

Spread the word

Websurfx is still a relatively young project, and as such not many people know of it. It would be great to see more users, and so it would be awesome if you could consider sharing with your friends or on social platforms.

Document your code properly with Rust coding conventions in mind.
Provide a brief description of the changes you made in the pull request.
