Contributing to Wagtail
Thank you for your interest in improving Wagtail!

Issues
The easiest way to contribute to Wagtail is to tell us how to improve it! First, check to see if your bug or feature request has already been submitted at github.com/wagtail/wagtail/issues. If it has, and you have some supporting information that may help us deal with it, comment on the existing issue. If not, please create a new one, providing as much relevant context as possible. For example, if you're experiencing problems with installation, detail your environment and the steps you've already taken. If something isn't displaying correctly, tell us what browser you're using, and include a screenshot if possible.
If your bug report is a security issue, do not report it with an issue. Please read our guide to reporting security issues.

Pull requests
If you are just getting started with development and have never contributed to an open-source project, we recommend you read the Your first contribution guide. If you're a confident Python or Django developer, fork it and read the developing docs to get stuck in!
We welcome all contributions, whether they solve problems that are specific to you or they address existing issues. If you're stuck for ideas, pick something from the issue list, or email us directly at hello@wagtail.org if you'd like us to suggest something!
For large-scale changes, we'd generally recommend breaking them down into smaller pull requests that achieve a single well-defined task and can be reviewed individually. If this isn't possible, we recommend opening a pull request on the Wagtail RFCs repository, so that there's a chance for the community to discuss the change before it gets implemented.
