Winit Contributing Guidelines

Scope

See FEATURES.md. When requesting or implementing a new Winit feature, you should consider whether or not it's directly related to window creation or input handling. If it isn't, it may be worth creating a separate crate that extends Winit's API to add that functionality.

Reporting an issue

When reporting an issue, in order to help the maintainers understand what the problem is, please make your description of the issue as detailed as possible:

• if it is a bug, please provide clear explanation of what happens, what should happen, and how to reproduce the issue, ideally by providing a minimal program exhibiting the problem
• if it is a feature request, please provide a clear argumentation about why you believe this feature should be supported by winit

Making a pull request

When making a code contribution to winit, before opening your pull request, please make sure that:

• you tested your modifications on all the platforms impacted, or if not possible detail which platforms were not tested, and what should be tested, so that a maintainer or another contributor can test them
• you updated any relevant documentation in winit
• you left comments in your code explaining any part that is not straightforward, so that the maintainers and future contributors don't have to try to guess what your code is supposed to do
• your PR adds an entry to the changelog file if the introduced change is relevant to winit users
• if your PR affects the platform compatibility of one or more features or adds another feature, the relevant sections in FEATURES.md should be updated.

Once your PR is open, you can ask for review by a maintainer of your platform. Winit's merging policy is that a PR must be approved by at least two maintainers of winit before being merged, including at least a maintainer of the platform (a maintainer making a PR themselves counts as approving it).

Maintainers & Testers

The current list of testers and contributors can be found on the Wiki.

If you are interested in contributing or testing on a platform, please add yourself to that table!
