Contributing to ModdingDocs

How can I contribute?

All contributions to ModdingDocs are welcome.

Including:

  • GitHub Issues containing any knowledge you want to share
  • Pull Requests with changes to the docs, even small ones

What do I need to know to contribute?

The Northstar modding documentation uses Markdown.

The .md files can be found in the docs/source directory.

Contributing without a local build

You don't necessarily need to set up a local build environment.

To contribute without doing so, you can just edit the files in an editor of your choice and create a GitHub pull request from them.

Building locally

You need to have a relatively recent version of Python installed - 3.8 or higher. Download here

git clone https://github.com/R2Northstar/ModdingDocs/
cd ModdingDocs
./run.ps1
git clone https://github.com/R2Northstar/ModdingDocs/
cd ModdingDocs
./run.sh

Warning

On Windows, if you are not able to run the script by running ./run.ps1, try running it with: powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\run.ps1

After this you should be able to run with just ./run.ps1.
