Prerequisites

• Fork the repository on Github
• Refer to DSpace 7 UI Technology Stack for learning resources about the new technologies used

Workflow

• Have a look at the project board

• Take an issue that’s in the ready section and has nobody assigned to it

• assign yourself

• When you start working on it, move the issue to the “in progress” section

• Work on a separate branch for the issue on your fork

• When you’re ready, fire a pull request

• in the comments of the pull request, write something akin to “this PR connect’s to #{the ID of the issue}”. That way the issue will be moved automatically to the review column.

• When at least two people have reviewed and approved your PR, it can be merged in master.

• You can also help out by reviewing the pull requests of other people

• Please keep an eye on your pull request afterwards, the reviewers may have questions or comments about it, or ask you to tackle things in a different way, before they can approve it

• Most discussions about the task or the pull request can happen through the github & project board comments.

• If it’s more complex you can bring it up in one of these meetings.

• After your Pull Request has been merged, drag the issue to the done column on the project board. (this can also be automated by adding “this merge closes #{the id of the issue}” in the merge comment.
