Contribution Guidelines

This is a compilation of Free and Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS). Restrictive licenses (aka Freeware, Shareware) are not awesome.

Commits

• Search previous suggestions before making a new one.
• Use the following format: [RESOURCE](LINK) - DESCRIPTION.
  • Keep descriptions short (<80 characters).
  • End descriptions with a full stop.
• Make an individual commit for each category.
  • Order projects alphabetically.
  • Consolidate multiple commits.

Pull Requests

• Use imperative (e.g. add instead of added/adding) in the PR title.
• Include application names, categories and a link to the open source project page in the description.

Issues

• Discussion, questions and bug reports only.
• If you are sure software meets the guidelines, create a Pull Request (see above).
• Check spelling and grammar.
• Suggestions for improvements to existing structure are welcome.
