How to contribute to Sardana

Sardana development is managed with the Sardana GitLab project.

Apart from directly contributing code, you can contribute to Sardana in many ways, such as reporting bugs or proposing new features. In all cases you will probably need a GitLab.com account and you are strongly encouraged to subscribe to the sardana-devel and sardana-users mailing lists.

We also invite you to join the regular project follow-up meetings. These are announced on the previously mentioned mailing list.

Detailed instructions on how to contribute to code or documentation can be found in CONTRIBUTING.md.
