Ideas for Contributing to Elektra

Thank you for being interested in contributing to Elektra!

How Can I Get Started?

We prepared good first issues 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 tools could be improved.
