To begin you'll need Git and .NET setup on your machine.
The blazor-fluentui repo uses Git as its source control system. If you haven't already installed it, you can download it here or if you prefer a GUI-based approach, try GitHub Desktop.
Once Git is installed, you'll also need .NET. Instructions and downloads for your preferred OS can be found here.
:::important The above steps are a one-time setup for your machine and do not need to be repeated after the initial configuration. :::
Now that your machine is setup, you can clone the blazor-fluentui repository. Open a terminal and run this command:
git clone https://github.com/dotnet/blazor-fluentui.gitCloning via SSH:
git clone git@github.com:dotnet/blazor-fluentui.gitFrom within the folder where you've cloned the repo, install all package dependencies and build the project with the following command.
dotnet buildIf you'd like to contribute by fixing a bug, implementing a feature, or even correcting typos in our documentation, you'll want to submit a pull request. Before submitting a pull request, be sure to rebase your branch from master. Do not use git merge or the merge button provided by GitHub.
If you are merging a pull request, be sure to use the pull request title as the commit title. The title should follow the conventional commit guidelines. It is recommended that if you are merging in pull requests regularly that you add a browser extension that will auto-correct the title for you. A few that should do this are Refined GitHub and Squashed Merge Message.
Make sure to document the migration strategy in a MIGRATION.md file in the docs folder.
Example of how to format MIGRATION.md:
# Migrating from previous versions
## v1 to v2
- Export `Foo` has been renamed to `Bar`.
- `Bat` has been updated to use the new API [`BatConfig`](link/to/api).A “Contribution” is work voluntarily submitted to a project. This submitted work can include code, documentation, design, answering questions, or submitting and triaging issues.
Many contributions require you to agree to a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) declaring that you have the right to grant and do grant the rights to use your contribution. For details, visit https://cla.microsoft.com.
When you submit a pull request, a CLA-bot automatically determines if you need to provide a CLA and decorates the pull request appropriately (e.g., label, comment). Follow the instructions provided by the bot. You only need to do this once across all repositories using our CLA.
Owners, the steering committee, collaborators, code owners, and contributors work in concert with one another on behalf of the community and prioritize the communities interests over their own.
The development, release, and work management processes must reflect this principle. Accepting contributions to the project requires a review by collaborators.
Owners have admin access and are responsible for the management, maintenance, and operations of the repository.
Steering committee members are key collaborators who have demonstrated design or technical expertise critical to the driving the project and community forward.
Collaborators have write access and have an active and sustained impact on the project and participate in triaging issues, reviewing code, mentoring, and working to improve the architectural quality.
As subject matter experts, code owners approve pull requests on the packages they own. There is a required minimum of one code owner for each package. Code owners are listed in CODEOWNERS.
Contributors have read access and can be anyone who has contributed a completed pull request to the project.
- To become a contributor, a community member must have a pull request approved and merged into the project master branch.
- To become a collaborator, a contributor will petition the steering committee who will approve or deny the request.
- To become a code owner, a collaborator will be (a) nominated by a steering committee member or (b) petition the steering committee who will approve or deny the request.
- To join the steering committee, a collaborator will be nominated by a steering committee member and the steering committee who will approve or deny the request.
Acceptance of contributions follows the consensus-seeking process.
All pull requests must be approved by a collaborator before the pull request can be accepted.
Before a pull request is accepted, time should be given to receive input from collaborators or code owners with the expertise to evaluate the changes. The amount of time can vary but at least 3 days during the typical working week and 5 days over weekends should be given to account for international time differences and work schedules.
When a pull request : (a) has a significant impact on the project, (b) is inherently controversial, or (c) has not reached consensus with collaborators; add a "controversial" label to the pull request for the steering committee to review the pull request. Pull requests labeled with "controversial" are not approved until the steering committee reviews the issue and makes a decision.
Additionally, owners, can temporarily enable interaction limits to allow a "cool-down" period when hot topics become disruptive.
Specific collaborators or code owners can be added to a pull request by including their user alias.
An essential consideration in every pull request is its impact on the system. To manage impacts, we work collectively to ensure that we do not introduce unnecessary breaking changes, performance or functional regressions, or negative impacts on usability for users or supported partners.
