# Introduction
### Welcome!
First off, thank you for considering contributing to Homer!
### Project philosophy
Homer is meant to be a light and very simple dashboard that keeps all your useful utilities at hands. The few features implemented in Homer focus on
UX and usability. If you are looking for a full featured dashboard, there is tons of great stuff out there like https://heimdall.site/, https://github.com/rmountjoy92/DashMachine or https://organizr.app/.
- Configuration is stored in a simple config file, avoiding the need for a backend/database while making possible to use versioning or [config template](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_templating.html).
- Only modern browsers are supported, feel free to use any JS features without any polyfill as soon as the latest version of the major browsers supports them.
# Ground Rules
### Code of conduct and guidelines
First of all, we expect everyone (contributors and maintainers alike) to respect the [Code of conduct](https://github.com/bastienwirtz/homer/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md). It is not a recommendation, it is mandatory.
For all contributions, please respect the following guidelines:
* Each pull request should implement ONE feature or bugfix. If you want to add or fix more than one thing, submit more than one pull request.
* Do not commit changes to files that are irrelevant to your feature or bugfix (e.g. `.gitignore`).
* Do not add unnecessary dependencies.
* Be aware that the pull request review process is not immediate, and is generally proportional to the size of the pull request.
# Getting started
### Discuss about ideas
If you want to add a feature, it's often best to talk about it before starting to work on it and submitting a pull request. It's not mandatory at all, but
feel free to open an issue to present your idea.
### How to submit a contribution
The general process to submit a contribution is as follow:
1. Take a look to the [development guideline](https://github.com/bastienwirtz/homer/blob/main/docs/development.md).
2. Create your own fork of the code
3. Do the changes in your fork
4. Make sure to fill the [pull request description](https://github.com/bastienwirtz/homer/blob/main/.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md) properly.
### Happy coding :metal:
