# Contributing
Everyone is welcome to contribute to WXT!
If you are changing the docs or fixing a bug, feel free to fork and open a PR.
If you want to add a new feature, please create an issue or discussion first so we can decide if the feature is inline with the vision for WXT.
## Conventional Commits
This project uses [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en) to automate versioning. If you're a new contributor, don't worry about this. When you open a PR, a maintainer will change the PR's title so it's in the style of conventional commits, but that's all.
Maintainers, commits to the `main` branch (either directly or via PRs) must be valid conventional commits.
## Setup
WXT uses `pnpm`, so make sure you have it installed.
```sh
corepack enable
```
Then, simply run the install command:
```sh
pnpm i
```
## Development
Here are some helpful commands:
```sh
# Build WXT package
pnpm build
```
```sh
# Build WXT package, then build demo extension
cd demo
pnpm build
```
```sh
# Build WXT package, then start the demo extension in dev mode
cd demo
pnpm dev
```
```sh
# Run unit and E2E tests
pnpm test
```
```sh
# Start the docs website locally
pnpm docs:dev
```
## Updating Docs
Documentation is written with VitePress, and is located in the `docs/` directory.
The API reference is generated from JSDoc comments in the source code. If there's a typo or change you want to make in there, you'll need to update the source code instead of a file in the `docs/` directory.
## Testing
WXT has unit and E2E tests. When making a change or adding a feature, make sure to update the tests or add new ones, if they exist.
> If they don't exist, feel free to create them, but that's a lot for a one-time contributor. A maintainer might add them to your PR though.
To run tests for a specific file, add the filename at the end of the test command:
```sh
pnpm test manifest-contents
```
Unit and E2E tests are ran together via [Vitest workspaces](https://vitest.dev/guide/#workspaces-support).
If you want to manually test a change, you can modify the demo project for your test, but please don't leave those changes committed once you open a PR.
## Templates
Each directory inside `templates/` is it's own standalone project. Simply `cd` into the directory you're updating, install dependencies with `npm` (NOT `pnpm`), and run the relevant commands
```sh
cd templates/vue
npm i
npm run dev
npm run build
```
Note that templates are hardcoded to a specific version of `wxt` from NPM, they do not use the local version. PR checks will test your changes against the templates, but if you want to manually do it, update the package.json dependency:
```diff
"devDependencies": {
"typescript": "^5.3.2",
"vite-plugin-solid": "^2.7.0",
- "wxt": "^0.8.0"
+ "wxt": "../.."
}
```
Then run `npm i` again.
### Adding Templates
To add a template, copy the vanilla template and give it a new name.
```sh
cp -r templates/vanilla templates/<new-template-name>
```
That's it. Once your template is merged, it will be available inside `wxt init` immediately. You don't need to release a new version of WXT to release a new template.
