### **Contributing code to Calibre-Web**
Open a new GitHub pull request with the patch. Ensure the PR description clearly describes the problem and solution. Include the relevant issue number if applicable.
In case your code enhances features of Calibre-Web: Create your pull request for the development branch if your enhancement consits of more than some lines of code in a local section of Calibre-Webs code. This makes it easier to test it and check all implication before it's made public.
Please check if your code runs on Python 2.7 (still necessary in 2020) and mainly on python 3. If possible and the feature is related to operating system functions, try to check it on Windows and Linux.
Calibre-Web is automatically tested on Linux in combination with python 3.7. The code for testing is in a [seperate repo](https://github.com/OzzieIsaacs/calibre-web-test) on Github. It uses unittest and performs real system tests with selenium, would be great if you could consider also writing some tests.
A static code analysis is done by Codacy, but it's partly broken and doesn't run automatically. You could check your code with ESLint before contributing, a configuration file can be found in the projects root folder.
