# Contributing
Contributions are welcome and encouraged.
To contribute fork this repository, make your changes, and open a pull request.
## Setup
Enable pre-commit hooks to catch CI failures before pushing:
```bash
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
```
### Nix Development Shell
If you have Nix installed with flakes enabled, you can use the provided development shell which includes all necessary dependencies:
```bash
nix develop
```
This will provide:
- Go 1.24 toolchain (go, gopls, delve, go-tools) and GNU Make
- Quickshell and required QML packages
- Properly configured QML2_IMPORT_PATH
The dev shell automatically creates the `.qmlls.ini` file in the `quickshell/` directory.
## VSCode Setup
This is a monorepo, the easiest thing to do is to open an editor in either `quickshell`, `core`, or both depending on which part of the project you are working on.
### QML (`quickshell` directory)
1. Install the [QML Extension](https://doc.qt.io/vscodeext/)
2. Configure `ctrl+shift+p` -> user preferences (json) with qmlls path
```json
{
"qt-qml.doNotAskForQmllsDownload": true,
"qt-qml.qmlls.customExePath": "/usr/lib/qt6/bin/qmlls"
}
```
3. Create empty `.qmlls.ini` file in `quickshell/` directory
```bash
cd quickshell
touch .qmlls.ini
```
4. Restart dms to generate the `.qmlls.ini` file
5. Make your changes, test, and open a pull request.
### GO (`core` directory)
1. Install the [Go Extension](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/languages/go)
2. Ensure code is formatted with `make fmt`
3. Add appropriate test coverage and ensure tests pass with `make test`
4. Run `go mod tidy`
5. Open pull request
## Pull request
