Orbital is currently developed on Gitlab (for historic reasons), and mirrored to Github.
This makes it difficult for us to accept contributions on Github. Please reach out on Slack if you'd like to contribute.
Orbital used to be called Vyne, so you'll see that in many places throughout the code. We're progressively moving this from Vyne to Orbital.
Commit messages follow the Conventional Commits specification that allows them to be readable both by humans and machines easily.
The available types and scopes have been listed out in .commitlintrc.json and a plugin called Commitlint Conventional Commit for IntelliJ IDEA adds a nice UI and checks the usage of the proper types and scopes when committing.
