Before creating an issue, please check the following:
- To avoid duplication, please search for similar issues before creating a new issue.
- Do not use Issues to ask questions or troubleshooting.
- Issues should only be used to feature requests, suggestions, and bug tracking.
- Please ask questions or troubleshooting in the [Matrix room](https://matrix.to/#/#firefish:matrix.fedibird.com).
> **Warning**
> Do not close issues that are about to be resolved. It should remain open until a commit that actually resolves it is merged.
## Before implementation
When you want to add a feature or fix a bug, **first have the design and policy reviewed in an Issue** (if it is not there, please make one). Without this step, there is a high possibility that the PR will not be merged even if it is implemented.
At this point, you also need to clarify the goals of the PR you will create, and make sure that the other members of the team are aware of them.
PRs that do not have a clear set of do's and don'ts tend to be bloated and difficult to review.
Also, when you start implementation, assign yourself to the Issue (if you cannot do it yourself, ask another member to assign you). By expressing your intention to work the Issue, you can prevent conflicts in the work.
## Well-known branches
- The **`main`** branch is tracking the latest release and used for production purposes.
- The **`develop`** branch is where we work for the next release.
- When you create a PR, basically target it to this branch. **But create a different branch**
- The **`l10n_develop`** branch is reserved for localization management.
- **`feature/*`** branches are reserved for the development of a specific feature

## Merge
## Release
### Release Instructions
1. Commit version changes in the `develop` branch ([package.json](https://github.com/misskey-dev/misskey/blob/develop/package.json))
2. Create a release PR.
- Into `master` from `develop` branch.
- The title must be in the format `Release: x.y.z`.
-`x.y.z` is the new version you are trying to release.
3. Deploy and perform a simple QA check. Also verify that the tests passed.
4. Merge it.
5. Create a [release of GitHub](https://github.com/misskey-dev/misskey/releases)
- The target branch must be `master`
- The tag name must be the version
## Development
During development, it is useful to use the `yarn dev` command.
This command monitors the server-side and client-side source files and automatically builds them if they are modified.
In addition, it will also automatically start the Misskey server process.
# THE FOLLOWING IS OUTDATED:
## Testing
- Test codes are located in [`/test`](/test).
### Run test
Create a config file.
```
cp test/test.yml .config/
```
Prepare DB/Redis for testing.
```
docker-compose -f test/docker-compose.yml up
```
Alternatively, prepare an empty (data can be erased) DB and edit `.config/test.yml`.
Misskey uses GitHub Actions for executing automated tests.
Configuration files are located in [`/.github/workflows`](/.github/workflows).
## Vue
Misskey uses Vue(v3) as its front-end framework.
- Use TypeScript.
- **When creating a new component, please use the Composition API (with [setup sugar](https://v3.vuejs.org/api/sfc-script-setup.html) and [ref sugar](https://github.com/vuejs/rfcs/discussions/369)) instead of the Options API.**
- Some of the existing components are implemented in the Options API, but it is an old implementation. Refactors that migrate those components to the Composition API are also welcome.
