This page is the first point for anyone interested in contributing to Elektra!
How can I get started?
We prepared beginner friendly tasks for you.
- We encourage you to improve documentation.
- In the source code, you should look into libs and plugins.
- You can always peek into the TODOs, if you don't know what to do.
- An ideal project is to elektrify some free software.
Elektrify means:
- Patch the application so that it uses Elektra as its configuration system.
- Write a specification that describes how the configuration of the application looks like.
If you are interested in directly improving Elektra, other projects might be of more interest to you:
- Further configuration file formats could be supported.
- The qt-gui could be improved.
- Your own ideas?
