Describe the feature that you are planing and your first idea how to implement it. +This ensures that you don't start working on something which collides with the targets of the maintainers. + +For small fixes and improvements feel free to directly create a PR, the maintainers are happy to review your code. + +## APIs +News offers an API that can be used by clients to synchronize with the server. +There are two API declarations, so far only V1 has been fully implemented. +Work on V2 has started with low priority. + +- [API-V1](api/api-v1.md) +- [API-V2](api/api-v2.md) + +## Coding Style Guidelines +The PHP code should all adhere to [PSR-2](https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-2/). +*Note that this is a different codestyle than Nextcloud itself uses.* +To test the codestyle you can run `make phpcs`. + +For linting JavaScript, a [jshint file](https://github.com/nextcloud/news/blob/master/js/.jshintrc) is used that is run before compiling the JavaScript. |
