How to contribute

I obviously accept external pull requests. Look up github's documentation on How to create a pull request on how to do so. But make sure you follow these rules :

• The function must be small and must only do one action (post an article, broadcast a vote etc).
• The function must be fully commented jsdoc/python docstring style
• The files must follow the directory structure :
  • /library/nameofthesnippet/nameofhtesnippet.js/.py
• The file must include an installation file with all the dependencies. Aka a requirements.txt for python or a package.json for nodejs. This must be placed next to the source code file.
