You don't necessarily have to contribute just with pull requests. Any other kind of contributions are also really appreciated. Some examples follow here:

• Submitting issues for feature enhancement requests or ideas.
• Submitting bug reports.
• Submitting design proposals to an issue or feature request.
• Of course, contributing pull requests for open issues or new features.

Contributing code

• Use meaningful commit messages. Please adhere to a max. of 50 characters for the title and 72 per line for the body. You can find some more guidelines here if you are interested.
• For Rust code: Run cargo clippy and cargo fmt before submitting patches.
• For C++ code: Follow the Google C++ Style Guide. There are a few exceptions to these guidelines:
  • Use m_ as a prefix for member variables instead of the _ suffix.
  • Use s_ as a prefix for static member variables.
  • Global variables that are not marked as static shall have a g_ prefix.
  • Static global variables use s_ as a prefix.
  • Use camelCase instead of PascalCase for methods.
• C++ code should be formatted with clang-format version 10.
