HOW TO CONTRIBUTE CODE

Step 1 : Get an issue & get involved

Find an issue that you want to work on or create an issue. If you make an issue, please make sure that it is for exactly one feature at a time.
"Assign" the issue to yourself.
Join the Limbforge Slack and join our #developers channel. Say hey and ask whatever questions you need answered!

Step 2 : Get the code

Fork the Limbforge repo by clicking the "Fork" button at the top right of the page and select your personal repo.
Set up your local dev environment.
Once everything is copied over, make your changes on your fork on your local environment.

Step 3 : Submit your code

Once you are done with your changes submit a pull request.
Describe everything in your PR description, including : 1) what code is included and 2) which github issue it closes. If making UI changes, please include screenshots of what those changes look like.
Find the github issues that you are closing with this PR, and add them each with a line like so in the description of your PR:

closes https://github.com/thisisthelinktothegithubissueyouareclosing

^^ this way when we close the PR, the github issue is automatically closed as well

Assign to Andreas Bastian or Kaitlyn Hova to merge your changes into the master branch of LimbForge! Note: The review process may require you to update your code, but once your branch is "merged" into master you are done.
