Webdiplomacy is open source, and we welcome contributions! You can find our todo list here, and our code here

Feature requests

We get a lot of feature requests. If your feature request isn't already on our issue tracker, then the best place to ask is the forum. This will help us gauge support for your ideas, before we add it to the todo list.

Bug reports

If you're familiar with github, you're welcome to submit a bug report in our issue tracker. Please be as detailed as possible, and include steps to reproduce the bug, what happens, and what you expect to happen instead. If you don't want to use github, you can also email bug reports to diplo-mod@kaffelport.net.

Code contributions

We welcome code contributions for any of the issues on the "soon" milestone. Simply fork the project, and develop a fix in a branch. We accept pull requests that:

• are well tested
• only include one fix per pull request
• keep the code clean and maintainable
• use the same style as the rest of webdip
• keep whitespace changes to a minimum

When writing the text of your pull request, please include:

• The details of the testing that you've performed
• The github issue number that this pull request is a fix for if applicable

Any questions, please email diplo-mod@kaffelport.net, and a member of the dev team will answer.
