# Contributing to Zellij
Thanks for considering to contribute to Zellij!
**First**: if you're unsure or afraid of anything, just ask on our [Discord
server][discord-invite-link] or submit the issue or pull request anyway. You
won't be yelled at for giving it your best effort. The worst that can happen is
that you'll be politely asked to change something. We appreciate any sort of
contributions, and don't want a wall of rules to get in the way of that.
# Code of Conduct
Before contributing please read our [Code of Conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) which
all contributors are expected to adhere to.
## Building
To build Zellij, we're using cargo-make – you can install it by running `cargo
install --force cargo-make`. To edit a manpage mandown crate (`cargo install
mandown`) is used and the work is done on a markdown file in docs/MANPAGE.md.
Here are some of the commands currently supported by the build system:
```sh
# Format code, build, then run tests and clippy
cargo make
# You can also perform these actions individually
cargo make format
cargo make build
cargo make test
# Run Zellij (optionally with additional arguments)
cargo make run
cargo make run -- -l strider
# Run Clippy (potentially with additional options)
cargo make clippy
cargo make clippy -W clippy::pedantic
# Install Zellij to some directory
cargo make install /path/of/zellij/binary
# Publish the zellij and zellij-tile crates
cargo make publish
# Update manpage
cargo make manpage
```
To run `install` or `publish`, you'll need the package `binaryen` in the
version `wasm-opt --version` > 97, for it's command `wasm-opt`.
## Looking for something to work on?
If you are new contributor to `Zellij` going through
[beginners][good-first-issue] should be a good start or you can join our public
[Discord server][discord-invite-link], we would be happy to help finding
something interesting to work on and guide through.

## Filing Issues

and **later link to it from the PR**.
- Use a **clear and descriptive title** for the pull request.
- Follow [Conventional Commit
specification](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) where
sufficiently large or impactful change is made.
- Provide a **description of the changes** in as many details as necessary.
