Thanks for taking the time to contribute!

PRs and bug reports are welcome, and we are actively looking for new maintainers.

Setting Up Dev Environment

The master branch is the active development branch.

Building react-maplibre locally from the source requires node.js LTS. We use yarn to manage the dependencies.

git checkout master
yarn bootstrap
yarn test

Test:

$ yarn test

Test in Node:

$ yarn test node

Test in browser (can use Chrome dev tools for debugging):

$ yarn test browser

Any intended change to the code base must open a pull request and be approved.

Generally speaking, all PRs are open against the master branch, unless the feature being affected no longer exists on master.

Tests
yarn test must be successful.
- New code should be covered by unit tests whenever possible.
Documentation
- If public APIs are added/modified, update component documentation in docs/api-reference.
- Breaking changes and deprecations must be added to docs/upgrade-guide.md.
- Noteworthy new features should be added to docs/whats-new.md.
Description on GitHub
- Link to relevant issue.
- Label with a milestone (latest release or vNext).
- If public APIs are added/modified, describe the intended behavior.
- If visual/interaction is affected, consider attaching a screenshot/GIF.
