# How to Contribute
Your contributions are welcome and we're very open about how contributions are made, however, to keep order to things please take the following into consideration:
* Check the issues to ensure that someone else isn't already working on the bug or feature
* Submit an issue for bugs and feature additions before you start with it
* Familiarize yourself with the documentation in the [Wiki](https://gitlab.com/xevidos/codiad/wikis/home)
There is an established format for `components` which utilizes one JS (`init.js`) and one CSS (`screen.css`) which is handled by the loader file. Any other resources used should be loaded or accessed from one of these.
**Don't Reinvent the Wheel!** There's an API and defined, easy-to-understand set of methods for a reason - use them.
Stick to the conventions defined in other components as closely as possible.
* Utilize the same commenting structure
* Use underscores in namespaces instead of interCaps
* Use intend with a tab character in your code
* When working with the editor utilize the `active` object whenever possible instead of going direct to the `editor`
