| ## Development |
| |
| ### Source code |
| |
| The source code of the nanomsg library is hosted on |
| https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg[GitHub]. |
| |
| The source code of this website is located in the |
| https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg/tree/gh-pages[gh-pages branch]. |
| |
| ### Build |
| |
| Building this software as a developer is very similar to building it |
| the distribution as an end-user or system administrator. |
| The same tools will be needed, but no extra tools are required. |
| Please see the https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg/blob/master/README.md[README] |
| file for more information. |
| |
| One thing that may be different is that you should obtain the |
| latest development tree from git. You can clone it from |
| https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg.git[GitHub]. |
| |
| ### Auto-builds |
| |
| Auto-builds are run every time the project is updated. The results are linked |
| from the main repository page, and include tests on Linux, MacOS X, and Windows. |
| |
| ### Bug tracker |
| |
| We use |
| https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg/issues[Github Issues] |
| to report problems with nanomsg. |
| |
| ### Contributing |
| |
| To contribute to nanomsg project, send a GitHub pull request. |
| We insist that all contributions are submitted under the |
| https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg/blob/master/COPYING[MIT/X11 license], |
| so that we can incorporate them under the same terms. |
| |
| If you make a substantial contribution to a file, add your copyright to the |
| file header. You should also add your name to the |
| https://github.com/nanomsg/nanomsg/blob/master/AUTHORS[AUTHORS] file, |
| to indicate you own copyright to a part of the codebase. |
| |
| There is a <<development-style.adoc#,Development Style>> guide with which you |
| should familiarize yourself. (Note that the in recent times adherence |
| to the style guide has been somewhat relaxed, the best approach is to |
| attempt to use the same style found in the current code base.) |
| |
| ### Language bindings |
| |
| If you want to implement a new language binding for nanomsg, check this |
| <<development-bindings.adoc#,document>> describing best practices and offering |
| helpful tips. |
