How to contribute

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to tiny-dnn! The following is a few guidelines for contributors. These are just guidelines, not rules, and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request.

Getting Started

  • Make sure you have a C++11 compiler.
  • Make sure you have a GitHub account.
  • Register a report about your issue.
    • Check the issue list to see if the problem has already been reported.
    • This can be skipped if the issue is trivial (fixing a typo, etc).

Making Changes

  • Create a topic branch where you want to base your work.
    • This is usually the master branch.
  • Make commits.
  • Make sure you have added the necessary tests for your changes.
  • Submit a pull request.
  • Make sure all CI builds are passed.

Coding guides

  • Keep header-only
  • Keep dependency-free
    • If your change requires 3rd party libraries, this should be optional in tiny-dnn. Please guard your 3rd party dependent code by #ifdef - #endif block, and write CMakelist option to enable the block - but lesser these switches, the better.
  • Keep platform-independent
    • Use C++ standard library instead of Windows/POSIX dependent API
    • CPU/GPU optimized code should be extracted as a separated file, and should be guarded as preprocessor macro.
