Thank your for contributing to this project! We welcome collaborators and expect users to follow our [code of conduct](CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) when submitting code or comments.
1. Fork the repo ( https://github.com/poanetwork/hbbft/fork ).
2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b my-new-feature`).
3. Write tests that cover your work.
4. Run Rustfmt, Clippy, and all tests to ensure CI rules are satisfied. Correct versions and feature flags can be found in the [`.travis.yml`](https://github.com/poanetwork/hbbft/blob/master/.travis.yml) file.
5. Commit your changes (`git commit -am 'Add some feature'`).
6. Push to your branch (`git push origin my-new-feature`).
* We strive to follow the [Rust API Guidelines](https://rust-lang-nursery.github.io/api-guidelines/about.html) to maintain consistency and compatibility in our code.
* Commits should be one logical change that still allows all tests to pass. We prefer smaller commits if there could be two levels of logic grouping. The goal is to provide future contributors (including your future self) the reasoning behind your changes and allow them to cherry-pick, patch or port those changes in isolation to other branches or forks.
Creating and discussing [Issues](https://github.com/poanetwork/hbbft/issues) provides significant value to the project. If you find a bug you can report it in an Issue.
