# Contributing [Questions and comments](https://gitter.im/gulp-webpack-starter/Lobby), [issues](https://github.com/wwwebman/gulp-webpack-starter/issues), [pull requests](https://github.com/wwwebman/gulp-webpack-starter/pulls) are all welcome. Let's create something cool together :raised_hand: ## Getting Started - right way * Make sure you have a [GitHub account](https://github.com/signup/free) * Submit a Github issue for this Repo * Clearly describe the issue * Fork the repository on GitHub ## Making Changes * Create a topic branch from where you want to base your work * This is usually the master branch * Only target release branches if you are certain your fix must be on that branch * To quickly create a topic branch based on master, run `git checkout -b fix/my_awesome_change`. Please avoid working directly on the `master` branch * Make commits of logical and atomic units * Check for unnecessary whitespace with `git diff --check` before committing * Make sure your commit messages are in the proper format: * Short (50 chars or less) summary of changes * Start the line with "Fix", "Add", "Change" instead of "Fixed", "Added", "Changed" * Capitalize the subject line * Push changes * Create Pull Request # Contributors * **[Samuel Allemang](https://github.com/scallemang)** * Documentation improvements
