Call for contributors

[jasonwilliams]

We're looking for contributors who can help maintain this extension. Right now contributions come from me or some others who have a bit of time. There are some great bugs being reports but there's not much time to act on them.

Where can I contribute?

Respond to issues

Responding to issues is another extremely effective way to help out. I've set up an issue template to help make it easier to narrow down where problems are arising from. We would need someone who can try out bugs, test if there's enough information in the issue and help triage the problem.

Updating syntax highlighting

We have a contributing guide which helps you debug syntax highlighting issues and how to reproduce them.

Updating intellisense

We have a contributing guide which goes into more detail on how the intellisense works and where you can make changes. We mainly rely on sub-dependencies for this points you in the right direction.

Documentation

The documentation may not be up to scratch or suitable for newcomers. So any help here is also useful.

@jasonwilliams I'd be happy to help. I'm using this extension daily and I don't mind contributing back.

That’s great to hear @arsinclair. Feel free to ping me on here or in discord, it’s mainly just attacking the issues already posted. I don’t have time to maintain this repo anymore but I can help with merges/releases etc.

the contributing guide should be enough to get you started

@jasonwilliams sounds good! I might only be able to find time on weekends, but that's better than nothing 😁. I'm happy to become a co-maintainer (so, merges/releases) in case you don't have time. We can have a quick video call, if necessary.

I'm thinking of going through a backlog of bug reports first, but then also looking at implementing the auto-formatting of the styled code, this is something that I personally lack a lot.
