# Contributing to OpenProse
Thanks for your interest in contributing to OpenProse! This document outlines how to get involved.
## Ways to Contribute
- **Report bugs** — Open an issue describing what went wrong
- **Suggest features** — Open an issue with your idea
- **Submit PRs** — Fix bugs or implement features
- **Share feedback** — Tell us how you're using OpenProse
## Before You Start
### Small Changes
For bug fixes, documentation improvements, or small enhancements — just open a PR. No need to ask first.
### Large Changes
Before investing significant time in a major feature or architectural change, please reach out first. This helps ensure your work aligns with the project direction and doesn't conflict with ongoing development.
Ways to discuss ideas:
- Open a GitHub issue describing your proposal
- Reach out on X/Twitter: [@irl_danB](https://x.com/irl_danB)
This isn't gatekeeping — it's to save you from wasted effort if the change runs counter to something already in progress.
## Submitting a PR
1. Fork the repository
2. Create a branch for your change
3. Make your changes
4. Test locally (run example `.prose` programs)
5. Submit the PR with a clear description
## Code of Conduct
