Contribution Guidelines

✅ DO:

  • Write secure, audited code
  • Include comprehensive tests (>80% coverage)
  • Document all functions with NatSpec
  • Follow Solidity style guide
  • Test on testnets before mainnet
  • Include gas optimization notes

🎯 Best Practices

  1. Security First: Use audited libraries (OpenZeppelin)
  2. Test Coverage: Aim for >80% test coverage
  3. Gas Optimization: Minimize transaction costs
  4. Documentation: Use NatSpec comments
  5. Upgradability: Consider proxy patterns if needed
  6. Events: Emit events for all state changes
  7. Access Control: Implement proper permissions
  8. Error Handling: Use custom errors (Solidity 0.8+)
