Suggesting enhancements and reporting bugs

Since we're a very small community, we will appreciate every contribution regardless of the size.

We will be happy to discuss new features and possible enhancements, so feel free to use GitHub Issues for suggesting enhancements, new features and reporting bugs.

Once your enhancement/new feature is approved, you can open a Pull Request.

For small changes or misspellings, don't hesitate to open a pull request directly.

Contributing

Before creating a new Pull Request, open an issue at GitHub Issues. Just to make sure everybody feels comfortable with the change. Remember to specify if you are able or unable, to develop the enhancement/feature.

Contributing rules

  • Do not include unrelated commits in the same Pull Request.

  • Use .editorconfig file located in the root folder. More info

  • Use the .scss-lint file located in the root folder.

  • In order to make this library easy to maintain you can use mixins, placeholders and even functions if necessary. The golden rule here is keeping it as simple as possible. Sometimes is better a simple solution that takes a few more lines of code, rather than one that adds complexity for the sake of one-liners. Just use common sense here. In case of doubt join our chat at sierra-library gitter.

  • Many selector names can be improved, but try to avoid changing them (do it only if strictly necessary). We will change them in the V2 with BEM naming.

  • Happy contributing everyone!
