Report bugs

Bug reports help Lagom improve, so please report any issues you have! Lagom uses GitHub to track issues. When you report bugs, make sure you include lots of detail, including reproducible tests, example code or anything else you think might help.

Even if you're not ready to fix issues yourself just yet, you can help out by verifying issues that have been reported by others. Look for issues tagged with the needs-verification label. You can assist by looking at these issues and doing some checking to confirm whether they're bugs or not. You could provide reproducible tests or a sample project, or even just ask the original reporter for more information.

Patch the core

Lagom's code and documentation is hosted on Github. Lagom development is discussed on the Lagom contributers Gitter channel. Here you can talk to the Lagom contributors about features and improvements for Lagom.

You're welcome to work on any feature you like — Lagom is open source after all! — but if you'd like some good ideas, look for issues tagged with the community label. These issues are ready and waiting for volunteers to pick them up.
