# How to Contribute
|
||||
|
||||
We love Pull Requests! Your contributions help make ChooseALicense.com great.
|
||||
|
||||
## Getting Started
|
||||
|
||||
So you want to contribute to ChooseALicense. Great! We welcome any help we can
|
||||
get. But first, please make sure you understand what
|
||||
[this site is all about](http://choosealicense.com/about).
|
||||
|
||||
It’s not a comprehensive list of all possible licenses.
|
||||
|
||||
If you understand the goals of this site and still want to suggest a change,
|
||||
please:
|
||||
|
||||
* Make sure you have a [GitHub account](https://github.com/signup/free)
|
||||
* Submit a ticket for your issue, assuming one does not already exist.
|
||||
* Clearly describe the issue including steps to reproduce when it is a bug.
|
||||
* Make sure you fill in the earliest version that you know has the issue.
|
||||
|
||||
## Making Changes
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to make a change is to simply edit a file from your browser.
|
||||
When you click the edit button, it will fork the repository under your account.
|
||||
Note what issue/issues your patch fixes in the commit message.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, to [change this file](https://github.com/github/choosealicense.com/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md),
|
||||
find it in the GitHub repository. Then click the `Edit` button. Make your
|
||||
changes, type in a commit message, and click the `Propose File Change` button.
|
||||
That’s it!

* Politics Free - Let's just not get into it.
|
||||
* Well designed, but that goes without saying.
|
||||
* The homepage should have just enough to help 99% of folks make a decision.
|
||||
* For the 1%, the site will contain a license chooser similar to
|
||||
the [creative commons license chooser](http://creativecommons.org/choose/)
|
||||
* For the 1%, the site will contain a list of licenses common for specific
|
||||
communities and situations.
|
||||
* Not comprehensive. Seems like an odd goal, but there are a bajillion
|
||||
(I counted) licenses out there. We're going to have to filter that down to a
|
||||
small list of those that matter.
