# Contributing to Ebiten
Ebiten is an open source project and we appreciate your contributions!
There are some rules for Ebiten contribution.
## Asking us when you are not sure
You can ask us at these communities:
* [Ebiten Discord Server](https://discord.gg/3tVdM5H8cC)
* `#ebiten` channel in [Gophers Slack](https://invite.slack.golangbridge.org/)
* [GitHub Discussion](https://github.com/hajimehoshi/ebiten/discussions)
## Following the Go convention
Please follow the Go convension like [Effective Go](https://golang.org/doc/effective_go.html).
For example, formatting by `go fmt` is required.
## Adding copyright comments to each file
```go
// Copyright [YYYY] The Ebiten Authors
//
// Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0 (the "License");
// you may not use this file except in compliance with the License.
// You may obtain a copy of the License at

// See the License for the specific language governing permissions and
// limitations under the License.
```
You don't have to update existing files' license comments.
## Adding build tags for examples
```go
//go:build example
// +build example
```
`example` is to prevent from installing executions by `go get github.com/hajimehoshi/ebiten/v2/...`.
## Implementation details
See the [documents](https://ebiten.org/documents/implementation.html) about internal implementation.
## Fixing the documentation
Ebiten's documentations are managed at [ebiten/ebiten.org](https://github.com/ebiten/ebiten.org).
Before submitting a documentation PR, read through the [README](https://github.com/ebiten/ebiten.org/blob/main/README.md) in that repo.
