This contribution guide is in progress, improvements are welcome.
### Code style
Any C++ code PRs should aim to follow the style of existing code in the project.
Using an autoformatter is heavily recommended, but make sure it's configured properly.
There's currently preconfigured autoformatter rules for:
* CLion (IntelliJ) in .idea/codeStyles/Project.xml
You can use those to configure your own IDE if it's not already on the list.
#### Linting errors and compiler warnings
Try to avoid any currently enabled warnings and try to reduce the amount of linter errors.
#### Spelling
Make sure you spellcheck your code before commiting it.
#### TODO, FIXME
Check before commiting that you haven't forgotten anything, preferably don't leave these in your commits.
#### Licence headers
You should add your name to the comma-space separated list of contributors if there's a license header.
### License
By contributing you agree to licence your code under the repository's general license (which is currently GPL-v3+).
