Contributing

You can contribute to the project in various ways:

  • Submissions (software, sites, useful content)
  • Translations

Generation

For site generation, we use Vitepress, so you'll need a working Node.js environment installed. Refer to its documentation for making changes to Vitepress itself.

You can also make changes in your browser using: Open in Codeflow

Please look into StackBlitz's browsers support for this, as notably Safari and Firefox can be less supported and unusable for this.

You will also need some hands-on experience with TypeScript if you're going to contribute to improving internals.

The root website directory is docs/.

Content

All content resides in the docs/ folder of the repository. Edit them as you would with normal Markdown files.

Translations

See https://vitepress.dev/guide/i18n and our tracker.

There are two things to translate: content and strings used in Vitepress (sidebar, nav, etc.).

Start by creating a folder in docs/<locale> and write your content in the exact same format.

Then, edit Vitepress strings. This may seem daunting, especially if you haven't used TypeScript or dealt with configurations like these before, but it shouldn't be overly difficult, and you don't have to do it too, I (tasky) can take care of it!

Create your locale file in docs/.vitepress/locales/<locale>.ts, copying over the format from the root English file, and start editing.

Once you're done, add it to Vitepress' config in docs/.vitepress/config.ts. If you've come this far, adding the language shouldn't be too challenging.
