Project Details

I created this issue in the VRS repo:

I noticed that the contributing doc doesn’t fully align with our current practices. I think it would be helpful to have a discussion about which practices we want to enforce and whether there’s anything new we should add, such as using conventional commit prefixes for PR titles. I haven’t always followed what’s in the specified in the docs, so it would be great to align on expectations and make it easier for everyone to follow.

I think it would be really great to have a discussion about GKS contributing guidelines and what they should include.

Proposed Action Items:

• Review examples of effective contributing guidelines from open-source projects
• Draft a new CONTRIBUTING.md file with proposed guidelines
• Create PR

Required Skills
