Grommet is divided into a few projects.
The best way to collaborate with the project contributors is through GitHub: https://github.com/HewlettPackard/grommet.
Note that all patches from all contributors get reviewed.
After a pull request is made, other contributors will offer feedback. If the patch passes review, a maintainer will accept it with a comment.
When a pull request for code contributions fails testing, the author is expected to update the pull request to address the failure until it passes testing and the pull request merges successfully.
At least one review from a maintainer is required for all patches (even patches from maintainers).
All contributions must include acceptance of the DCO:
Developer Certificate of Origin Version 1.1
Copyright (C) 2004, 2006 The Linux Foundation and its contributors. 660 York Street, Suite 102, San Francisco, CA 94110 USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1
By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I have the right to submit it under the open source license indicated in the file; or
(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source license and I have the right under that license to submit that work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part by me, under the same open source license (unless I am permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated in the file; or
(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified it.
(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution are public and that a record of the contribution (including all personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with this project or the open source license(s) involved.
To accept the DCO, simply add this line to each commit message with your name and email address (git commit -s will do this for you):
Signed-off-by: Jane Example <jane@example.com>
For legal reasons, no anonymous or pseudonymous contributions are accepted.
The Grommet community values contributions on the design side of the project. The Grommet style guide and designer assets are open for contributions just as the development platform. You may either submit an issue on GitHub with a detailed recommendation, or open a pull request with the updated assets.
If you don't feel like creating design assets or writing code, you can still contribute to the project!
We encourage and support contributions from the community. No fix is too small. We strive to process all pull requests as soon as possible and with constructive feedback. If your pull request is not accepted at first, please try again after addressing the feedback you received.
To make a pull request you will need a GitHub account. For help, see GitHub's documentation on forking and pull requests.
All pull requests with code should include tests that validate your change.
What the video below to learn how to contribute to Grommet. The Github contribution workflow is somehow complex and we want to make sure we don't loose your contributions because of that.
This contribution guide was inspired by the contribution guides for the Grunt and CloudSlang projects.
