# Contributing When contributing to this repository, please first discuss the change you wish to make via issue, email, or any other method with the owners of this repository before making a change. Please note we have a code of conduct; please follow it in all your interactions with the project. You can find it [here](https://github.com/AngeloStavrow/indigo/blob/master/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md) ## Pull Request Process 1. Please start by [opening an issue](https://github.com/AngeloStavrow/indigo/issues/new) describing what you'd like to change. Remember to search first, to avoid having it closed as a duplicate. 2. Make the changes discussed. Ensure that the theme builds and continues to function as expected; you can also try building the [theme gallery to test further](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoThemes/blob/master/README.md). Place high value on page-load speed and responsive design. 3. Update the README with any new site/page parameters as necessary. If you've added new dependencies, make sure to list them too. 4. Open a pull request and include the issue you opened in step 1 as part of the PR. Changes will be tested and, when everything's good to go, will be merged in by the project principals.
