How to contribute?
With this page, you will learn how to contribute code to the SEBLOD core.
Before starting the tutorial you should:
- create a GitHub Account
- install GitHub Desktop app (macOS or Windows)
Go to the Octopoos/SEBLOD repository, and create a fork (image 1). Choose where you want to fork it (image 2), and then clone it (image 3). Click on "Open in Desktop" (image 4). You should save it into your localhost (in this tutorial, we use Wamp, so we choose the "www" folder).

When you've done all your modifications, come back again into your github desktop application and give a summary to your modifications (image 8). Validate it and then create a pull request. Don't forget to change the request destination to "Octopoos/Seblod" into the pull request window (red underline blue words on the image 9). Once you validate it, it's done, you've finished your contribution (image 9) !
