In order to get your content included, you must submit a pull request to the GitHub Repository (Located here: <a href=https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines>https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines</a>). All Pull Requests are subject to approval by a minimum of three admins.</p><p>If You are toying with an idea, but You aren&rsquo;t ready to create a document just yet, you are encouraged to create a project discussion thread here: <a href=https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines/discussions>https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines/discussions</a></p><div class="alert alert-warning" role=alert><h4 class=alert-heading>Warning</h4><p>This is a warning.
If You haven&rsquo;t worked in collaboration with &ldquo;external&rdquo; GitHub repositories before, please familiarize yourself with that process by visiting:</p><p><a href=https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests>https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests</a></p></div><h2 id=steps>Steps</h2><p>Now that You have decided that You are ready to contribute, these are the steps to take.<div class="alert alert-info" role=alert><h4 class=alert-heading>Note</h4><p>You can read more about this process here:</p><p><a href=https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/contributing-to-projects>https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/contributing-to-projects</a></p></div></p><h3 id=step-1-fork>Step 1: Fork</h3><p>In order to work on the repository, You must <a href=https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo>Fork</a> the repository.</p><p>By forking the repository, You essentially create a copy into Your own account.</p><p>Start by going to the GitHub Repository (<a href=https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines>https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines</a>), and press the Fork <img src=./fork_button.jpg alt="Fork Button" title=Fork></p><p>Once You have successfully forked the repository, go to your own GitHub repository : <img src=./ForkedRepro.png alt="Forked Repository Representation" title="Forked repository"></p><p>You are now able to clone your own repository to your local pc and start editing using your favorite editor. <a href=https://code.visualstudio.com/>Visual Studio Code</a> is perfectly fine for this task.</p><div class="alert alert-info" role=alert><h4 class=alert-heading>Note</h4><p>You can read more about forking here:</p><p><a href=https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo>https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo</a></p></div><h3 id=step-2-branch>Step 2: Branch</h3><p>While not necessarily a must, it is always good practice to create a branch off of your forked repository. That will allow you to work on multiple contributions at the same time and won&rsquo;t have to wait for pull requests to be approved before you can continue on your next contribution.</p><div class="alert alert-info" role=alert><h4 class=alert-heading>Note</h4><p>You can read more about Branches here:</p><p><a href=https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/about-branches>https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/about-branches</a></p></div><h3 id=step-3-pull-request>Step 3: Pull Request</h3><p>Once you are happy with your contribution, it&rsquo;s time to create a pull request to propose changes into the main project! This is the final step in producing a fork of someone else&rsquo;s project, and arguably the most important. If you&rsquo;ve made a change that you feel would benefit the community as a whole, you should definitely consider contributing back.</p><p>To do so, head on over to the repository on GitHub where your project lives. For this example, it would be at <code>https://www.github.com/&lt;your_username>/alguidelines</code>. You&rsquo;ll see a banner indicating that your branch is one commit ahead of microsoft:main. Click <strong>Contribute</strong> and then <strong>Open a pull request.</strong></p><p>GitHub will bring you to a page that shows the differences between your fork and the microsoft/alguidelines repository. Click <strong>Create pull request.</strong></p><p>GitHub will bring you to a page where you can enter a title and a description of your changes. <em>It&rsquo;s important to provide as much useful information and a rationale for why you&rsquo;re making this pull request in the first place.</em> The project owners needs to be able to determine whether your change is as useful to everyone as you think it is. Finally, click <strong>Create pull request.</strong></p><div class="text-muted mt-5 pt-3 border-top">Last modified February 20, 2022: <a href=https://github.com/microsoft/alguidelines/commit/3d0cb3a40bf1b3ca00d2c10d7a977e2a806818e3>Moving contributing (3d0cb3a4)</a>
