Contributor Guide

Contributors are very welcome to this project.

At this stage, usability and clarity are a main priority. - If there is something that you think doesn't make sense, is too hard to do, worded badly or should work differently etc., don't hesitate to open an issue or get in touch.

  • If there is something you would like plottable to do, but it currently lacks the functionality, open an issue.
  • If you'd like to review the code and have suggestions on how to structure the project better, I'm all ears!

Code Formatting

This project uses the black code formatter to ensure all code conforms to a specified format. It is necessary to format the code using black prior to committing. You can do this by manually running the black command to run black on all .py files, or with black <filename.py> to run it on a specific file.

Alternatively, you can setup black autoformatting within your IDE.
