Contributing

Signal does accept external contributions to this project. However, unless the change is simple and easily understood, for example fixing a bug, adding a new test, or improving performance, first open an issue to discuss your intended change as not all changes can be accepted.

Contributions that will not be used directly by one of Signal's official client apps may still be considered, but only if they do not pose an undue maintenance burden or conflict with the goals of the project.
