## Issue Reporting/Commenting
Often, you might encounter unexpected behavior when building, flashing, or running the ZMK
firmware. Submitting or commenting on issues on GitHub is a great way to contribute to the
ZMK project.
### Before Submitting a Report
- Review the [Frequently Asked Questions](https://zmkfirmware.dev/docs/faq).
- Check the [Troubleshooting Guide](https://zmkfirmware.dev/docs/troubleshooting) for answers.
- Search the [open issues](https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/issues) for an existing report that
matches your problem.
### Opening A Report
To open a report:
- Head to https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/issues/new
- Provide an accurate summary of the issue in the title.
- Provide as much detail as you can about the issue including:
- What [board/shield](https://zmkfirmware.dev/docs/faq#what-is-a-board) you are using.
- A link to the user repository, if you used it to build your firmware.
- Exact steps to reproduce the problem.
- Any relevant screenshots or [logs](https://zmkfirmware.dev/docs/dev-guide-usb-logging)
## Testing
The `help wanted` label will be added to any [pull requests](https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Apr+label%3A%22help+wanted%22)
or [issues](https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3A%22help+wanted%22)
where user testing can assist the ZMK contributors to verify fixes, confirm
bugs, etc.
When providing testing feedback, please provide:
- Exact steps used to test
- Any hardware details relevant to testing
- Pass/fail summary for testing.
- Full details of any failures, including:
- Logs
- Screenshots
## Documentation
Quality documentation is a huge part of what makes a successful project. Contributions to add
documentation to areas not currently covered are greatly appreciated.
### Contributing
- The documentation site can be found in the main ZMK repo, in the
[docs/](https://github.com/zmkfirmware/zmk/tree/main/docs) subdirectory.
- The documentation is maintained using [Docusaurus V2](https://v2.docusaurus.io/docs/).
- To get started, from the `docs/` directory, run `npm ci` and then `npm start`.
- Enhancements should be submitted as pull requests to the `main` branch of ZMK.
## Code Contributions
### Development Setup
To get your development environment setup going, start at the
[basic setup](https://zmkfirmware.dev/docs/dev-setup) docs, and make sure you can build and flash
your own locally built firmware.
### Formatting
ZMK uses `clang-format` to ensure consist formatting for our source code. Before submitting your
changes, make sure you've manually run `clang-format`, or have your IDE configured to auto-format
on save.
### Commit Messages
The ZMK project is working towards, but not yet enforcing, the use of
[conventional commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/) for commit messages.
Further documentation and details will be provided here soon.
