## 1. Submitting a pull request
Once you have found something you would like to work on by:
## 1. Submitting an issue
Before starting work, consider opening an issue for discussion.
If you have a plan already, you can jump straight into [submitting a pull request](#2-submitting-a-pull-request).
Otherwise, see below for issue types and what they're used for.
### 1.1 Discussion
These are for general discussion on topics that have questions that aren't fully answered yet.
If you would like to discuss a topic and get some feedback, consider [opening a discussion](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/new/choose).
Examples:
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/40
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/53
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/163
### 1.2 Proposal
These are formal issues that specify changes that are _almost_ ready for implementation.
These should answer some basic questions:
- **What** is this proposal for?
- **Why** is this proposal needed?
- **Where** will this proposal make changes to?
- **How** will this proposal be implemented?
If you have a close to fully fleshed out idea, consider [opening a proposal](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/new/choose).
Opening a PR with the `A-proposal` tag and writing the proposal in the PR description is also viable.
Examples:
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/pull/146
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/106
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/153
- https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/181
### 1.3 Tracking issue
These are meta-issues that track an in-progress implementation.
See [`Tracking issues`](#32-tracking-issues) for more info.
## 2. Submitting a pull request
Once you have found something you would like to work on after:
- Discussing an idea on an [issue](#1-submitting-an-issue)
- Looking at the [open issues](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues)
- Looking at issues with the [`A-help-wanted`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3AE-help-wanted) label

- [`Documentation`](#5-documentation) (practical `cargo` docs)
- [`Books`](#6-books) (Cuprate's architecture and protocol)

## 2. Crate names
All of Cuprate's crates (libraries) are prefixed with `cuprate-`. All directories containing crates however, are not.
For example:
| Crate Directory | Crate Name |
|--------------------|--------------------|
| `storage/database` | `cuprate-database` |
| `net/levin` | `cuprate-levin` |
| `net/wire` | `cuprate-wire` |
## 3. Coding guidelines
This is a list of rules that are not mandated by any automation, but contributors generally follow.
You should keep these in mind when submitting code:
- Separate and sort imports as core, std, third-party, Cuprate crates, current crate
- Follow the [Rust API Guidelines](https://rust-lang.github.io/api-guidelines)
- `// Comment like this.` and not `//like this`
- Use `TODO` instead of `FIXME`
- Avoid `unsafe`
And the most important rule:
- Break any and all of the above rules when it makes sense
## 4. Keeping track of issues and PRs
## 3. Keeping track of issues and PRs
The Cuprate GitHub repository has a lot of issues and PRs to keep track of.
This section documents tools used to help with this.
### 4.1 Labels
Cuprate makes use of generic labels and labels grouped by a prefixes.
### 3.1 Labels
Cuprate makes use of labels grouped by prefixes.
Some labels will be [automatically added/removed](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/.github/labeler.yml) if certain file paths have been changed in a PR.
The following section explains the meaning of various labels used.
This section is primarily targeted at maintainers. Most contributors aren't able to set these labels.
| Labels | Description | Example |
| Prefix | Description | Example |
|--------------|-------------|---------|
| [A-] | The **area** of the project an issue relates to. | `A-storage`, `A-rpc`, `A-docs`
| [C-] | The **category** of an issue. | `C-cleanup`, `C-optimization`

### 4.2 Tracking issues
If you are working on a larger effort, consider opening a [tracking issue](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/new?assignees=&labels=C-tracking-issue&projects=&template=tracking_issue.md&title=Tracking+Issue+for+...)!
### 3.2 Tracking issues
If you are working on a larger effort, consider opening a [tracking issue](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/issues/new/choose)!
The main purpose of these are to track efforts that may contain multiple PRs and/or are generally spread out. These don't usually contain the "why", but if they do, they are brief. These contain no implementation details or the how, as those are for the issues/PRs that are being tracked.
For examples, see here:
