# Contributing
|
||
|
||
Your contributions are always welcome! Here are some guidelines.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Good Candidates
|
||
|
||
Before contributing, make sure the new link you'd like to add is a good
|
||
candidate.
|
||
|
||
Here is a non-restrictive list of items which are good candidates for inclusion
|
||
in this awesome list.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Falsehood Articles
|
||
|
||
Articles following the *falsehood* scheme are prime candidates for inclusion in
|
||
this awesome list.
|
||
|
||
These articles starts with the hypothesis that developers have a naive, simple
|
||
view of the subject at hand. Then proceed to list a set of candid assumptions
|
||
that might be held by the programmers. Each one is intentionally false, and
|
||
in their best form illustrated by a counter-example.
|
||
|
||
A list of falsehood is crafted as a progression that is designed to refine
|
||
concepts. Having read the whole list of falsehood, the reader should possess a
|
||
global, if not complete, overview of the domain being targeted by the article,
|
||
including most, if not all, its pitfalls, edges-cases and inconsistencies.
|
||
|
||
Sometimes, these kind of articles might provoke an emotional reaction and cause
|
||
flipping table. `(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻` Because, the world is messy. Discovering the
|
||
complexity of a domain that is simple in appearance will lead to
|
||
frustrations. This is the sign of a great candidate for that list!
|
||
|
||
Articles featuring items that are applicable to one product (or a service) and
|
||
one only can't be considered as generic enough and should be avoided.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Libraries
|
||
|
||
Programming libraries or modules are good candidates too, if they solve or
|
||
reduce the complexities pointed to by the *falsehood* articles above.
|
||
|
||
That way we can put back tables in place. `┬─┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)`
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Data Structures
|
||
|
||
Data models and structures generic enough to cover and address most of the
|
||
falsehoods are also welcome in this page.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Pull-Request and Issue
|
||
|
||
- Search past and current issues and pull-requests for previous suggestions
|
||
before making a new one, as yours may be a duplicate or a work in progress.
|
||
|
||
- Only one list item per commit.
|
||
|
||
- Only one commit per pull-request. Always squash commits after applying
|
||
changes.
|
||
|
||
- Check your spelling and grammar.
|
||
|
||
- Remove any trailing whitespaces.
|
||
|
||
- Use spaces, no tabs, for indention.
|
||
|
||
- Send a pull-request with the reason why the linked resource is awesome.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Linting
|
||
|
||
First and foremost, have your pull-request pass the [official Awesome List's
|
||
linter](https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome-lint). No extra work is
|
||
required here as it is [already integrated by the way of GitHub
|
||
actions](./.github/workflows/).
|
||
|
||
To run the linter locally, do:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ npm install --global awesome-lint
|
||
$ awesome-lint
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Additional rules
|
||
|
||
Here are some formatting style not enforced by the linter (yet), which are
|
||
specific to this awesome list.
|
||
|
||
- Cut long lines of text after 80 characters. Only exception is to let Markdown
|
||
content be properly rendered.
|
||
|
||
- If one of these rule conflict with the linter, the linter's rule should takes
|
||
precedence. Apply it.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## List items
|
||
|
||
- Link title must be [title-cased](http://titlecapitalization.com), AP style.
|
||
|
||
- Link title must be stripped out of the "*Programmers believe*" part to keep
|
||
it compact (we all know the scheme).
|
||
|
||
- URL must use HTTPs protocol if available.
|
||
|
||
- Keep descriptions concise, maximum number of characters is 350.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Sections
|
||
|
||
- Sections must be alphabetically sorted.
|
||
|
||
- Add a section if needed.
|
||
|
||
- Eventually add a description to the section.
