The following is a set of guidelines for contributing to NodeMCU on GitHub. These are just guidelines, not rules, use your best judgment and feel free to propose changes to this document in a pull request.
It is appreciated but optional if you raise an issue _before_ you start changing NodeMCU, discussing the proposed change; emphasising that the you are proposing to develop the patch yourself, and outling the strategy for implementation. This type of discussion is what we should be doing on the issues list and it is better to do this before or in parallel to developing the patch rather than having "you should have done it this way" type of feedback on the PR itself.

## Development environment setup
Use the platform and tools you feel most comfortable with. There are no constraints imposed by this project. You have (at least) two options to set up the toolchain to build the NodeMCU firmware:
- [Full-fledged Linux enviroment](http://www.esp8266.com/wiki/doku.php?id=toolchain#how_to_setup_a_vm_to_host_your_toolchain), either physical or virtual.
- [Full-fledged Linux environment](http://www.esp8266.com/wiki/doku.php?id=toolchain#how_to_setup_a_vm_to_host_your_toolchain), either physical or virtual.
- [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/marcelstoer/nodemcu-build/) which allows to run the build inside the container as if you were running a build script on your local machine.
## Writing Documentation

If you also want to verify that all is well with your Markdown files you can install Python-based [MkDocs](http://www.mkdocs.org/), which is used by RTD to build the static HTML files, and run `mkdocs serve` in the root of your NodeMCU firmware directory.
A note on Markdown *syntax*. As Mkdocs is Python-based it's no surprise it uses a [Python Markdown implementation](https://pythonhosted.org/Markdown/). The good news is that it sticks pretty closely to John Gruber's Markdown and also [supports tables and fenced code blocks](http://www.mkdocs.org/user-guide/writing-your-docs/#markdown-extensions) just like GitHub does.

1. `git checkout <branch-name>`
1. Make changes to the code base and commit them using e.g. `git commit -a -m 'Look ma, I did it'`
1. When you're done:
1. [Squash your commits](http://www.andrewconnell.com/blog/squash-multiple-git-commits-into-one) into one. There are [several ways](http://stackoverflow.com/a/5201642/131929) of doing this.

1. Bring your fork up-to-date with the NodeMCU upstream repo ([see below](#keeping-your-fork-in-sync)). Then rebase your branch on `dev` running `git rebase dev`.
1. `git push`
1. [Create a pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/) (PR) on GitHub.
This is just one way of doing things. If you're proficient in Git matters you're free to choose your own. If you want to read more then the [GitHub chapter in the Git book](http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/GitHub-Contributing-to-a-Project#The-GitHub-Flow) is a way to start. [GitHub's own documenation](https://help.github.com/categories/collaborating/) contains a wealth of information as well.

### Keeping your fork in sync
You need to sync your fork with the NodeMCU upstream repository from time to time, latest before you rebase (see flow above).
