## Contributing

|
Thank you for considering to help out with the source code! We welcome contributions from
|
|
anyone on the internet, and are grateful for even the smallest of fixes!
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to contribute to Swarm, please fork, fix, commit and send a pull request
|
|
for the maintainers to review and merge into the main code base. If you wish to submit more
|
|
complex changes though, please check up with the core devs first on [our Swarm gitter channel](https://gitter.im/ethersphere/orange-lounge)
|
|
to ensure those changes are in line with the general philosophy of the project and/or get some
|
|
early feedback which can make both your efforts much lighter as well as our review and merge
|
|
procedures quick and simple.
