Contributing to RichFaces
We welcome and encourage the community to contribute and help improve RichFaces. There are many ways to contribute if you are interested in helping out and participating in this great open source project:
- Report bugs and file feature requests
- We can't fix bugs we don't know about! Similarly we can't implement features unless we know they are required. Be sure to let us know by filing bug reports and feature requests in our issue tracker.
- For details on how to report constructive issues, refer to this guide on Submitting effective issue reports
- Post a patch
- If you can resolve an issue, or implement a feature, indicate your intentions as a jira comment in the corresponding issue, and submit a pull request vai our GitHub repository.
- For details on how to contribute your code, refer to the Contributor Getting Started Guide
- Share your RichFaces expertise
- Answering people's questions in the user forums, or writing wiki articles providing tutorials is another great way to contribute to the project. Not only do you help improve the community level of interaction, but you free up the core developers' time to fix bugs and provide features. Your articles might one day be part of the official project documentation!
- Participate in the development and design discussions
- RichFaces is designed and developed in the public, and both welcomes and encourages community involvement in the process. The dev forum is a great place to share your ideas for improving the framework.
- Addtionally we hold weekly meetings in IRC (#richfaces channel) with public agendas and minutes. Feel free to participate as we prioritize and discuss scheduled jira issues.
