Contributing Overview

How to report bugs, suggest features, and contribute to Alchemist.

Source revision aeebc48

Alchemist software is AGPLv3 open source. Its human-authored documentation is CC BY-SA 4.0. Contributions are welcome.

Start here

Development Setup for local bootstrap and common tasks
CONTRIBUTING.md for licensing and contribution terms
RELEASING.md for release and RC checklists

Windows contributors have a supported path for just install-w, just dev, and just check. Other just recipes are still Unix-first.

Reporting bugs

Go to GitHub Issues
Search for existing reports first
Use the Bug Report template
Include your logs, OS, GPU vendor, and Alchemist version

Suggesting features

Use the Feature Request template on GitHub Issues. Explain why the feature is useful, not just what you want.
