NewPipe contribution guidelines

READ THIS GUIDELINES CAREFULLY BEFORE CONTRIBUTING.

Crash reporting

Do not report crashes in the GitHub issue tracker. NewPipe has an automated crash report system that will ask you to send a report if a crash occures.

Issue reporting/feature request

Search the existing issues first to make sure your issue/feature hasn't been reported/requested before
Check if this issue/feature is already fixed/implemented in the repository
If you are an android/java developer you are always welcome to fix/implement an issue/a feature yourself

Translation

NewPipe can be translated on weblate

Code contribution

Stick to NewPipe style guidelines (just look the other code and than do it the same way :) )
Do not bring nonfree software/binary blobs into the project (keep it google free)
Stick to f-droid contribution guidelines
Make changes on a separate branch, not on the master branch (Feature-branching)
When submitting changes, you agree that your code will be licensed under GPLv3
Please test (compile and run) your code before you submit changes!!!
Try to figure out you selves why CI fails, or why a merge request collides
Please maintain your code after you contributed it.
Respond yourselves if someone request changes or notifies issues

Communication

I hereby declare our Slack channel as dead!!! There are no plans on building a new chat, but if there is interest on creating one and keeping it alive, I'd be pleased to create one again.
If you want to get in contact with me or one of our other contributors you can send me an email at tnp(at)schabi.org
Feel free to post suggestions, changes, ideas etc!
