# Contributing
Welcome to Pingora! Before you make a contribution, be it a bug report, documentation improvement,
pull request (PR), etc., please read and follow these guidelines.
## Start with filing an issue
More often than not, **start by filing an issue on GitHub**. If you have a bug report or feature
request, open a GitHub issue. Non-trivial PRs will also require a GitHub issue. The issue provides
us with a space to discuss proposed changes with you and the community.
Having a discussion via GitHub issue upfront is the best way to ensure your contribution lands in
Pingora. We don't want you to spend your time making a PR, only to find that we won't accept it on
a design basis. For example, we may find that your proposed feature works better as a third-party
module built on top of or for use with Pingora and encourage you to pursue that direction instead.
**You do not need to file an issue for small fixes.** What counts as a "small" or trivial fix is a
judgment call, so here's a few examples to clarify:
- fixing a typo
- refactoring a bit of code
- most documentation or comment edits
Still, _sometimes_ we may review your PR and ask you to file an issue if we expect there are larger
design decisions to be made.
## Making a PR
After you've filed an issue, you can make your PR referencing that issue number. Once you open your
PR, it will be labelled _needs review_. A maintainer will review your PR as soon as they can. The
reviewer may ask for changes - they will mark the PR as _changes requested_ and _work in progress_
and will give you details about the requested changes. Feel free to ask lots of questions! The
maintainers are there to help you.
### Caveats
Currently, internal contributions will take priority. Today Pingora is being maintained by
Cloudflare's Content Delivery team, and internal Cloudflare proxy services are a primary user of
Pingora. We value the community's work on Pingora, but the reality is that our team has a limited
amount of resources and time. We can't promise we will review or address all PRs or issues in a
timely manner.
## Conduct
Pingora and Cloudflare OpenSource generally follows the [Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct].
Violating the CoC could result in a warning or a ban to Pingora or any and all repositories in the Cloudflare organization.
[Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct]: https://github.com/cloudflare/.github/blob/26b37ca2ba7ab3d91050ead9f2c0e30674d3b91e/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md
