Contributing Guidelines

Thank you for your interest in contributing to Klaytn. As an open source project, Klaytn is always open to the developer community and we welcome your contribution to help more developer onboarding resources for the Klaytn developer community. Please read the guideline below and follow it in all interactions with the project.

How to Contribute on Klaytn

  1. Read this contributing document.
  2. Sign Contributor Licensing Agreement (CLA).
  3. Submit an issue with a proper labelling.
  4. Please wait until the label changes to contribution welcome - otherwise, it is not ready to be worked on.
  5. Only after the label changed to contribution welcome, you can start submitting the changes. To avoid any duplicate efforts, it is recommended to update the issue so that other contributors could see someone working on the issue.
  6. Before making a Pull Request (PR), please make sure the suggested content changes are accurate and linked with the corresponding issue reported. After submitting the PR, wait for code review and approval. The reviewer may ask you for additional commits or changes.
  7. All PRs should be made against the main branch, once the change has been approved, the PR is merged by the project moderator.
  8. After merging the PR, the pull request will be closed. You can then delete the now obsolete branch.
