Contributing

We welcome contributions to Julia and appreciate your interest. There are capabilities to grow, interfaces to write and whatever you might do. Area experts may contribute by writing software that supports work in their own field. For help, Julia has a dev list that works at working well for participants. To keep things percolating as smoothly as possible, we ask that you follow the advice and guidelines given here.

ready, get set

Before contributing to Julia, you should join the dev list, read the user manual and library guide, reread the user manual, and create a free GitHub account. Follow these steps to get Julia copied to your machine in a way that lets you to work locally, rewind your edits, keep a remote backup, and safely contribute to Julia.
