# Contributing to LangChain
|
|
|
|
Hi there! Thank you for even being interested in contributing to LangChain.
|
|
As an open-source project in a rapidly developing field, we are extremely open to contributions, whether they involve new features, improved infrastructure, better documentation, or bug fixes.
|
|
|
|
To learn about how to contribute, please follow the [guides here](https://python.langchain.com/docs/contributing/)
|
|
|
|
## 🗺️ Guidelines
|
|
|
|
### 👩💻 Ways to contribute
|
|
|
|
There are many ways to contribute to LangChain. Here are some common ways people contribute:
|
|
|
|
- [**Documentation**](https://python.langchain.com/docs/contributing/documentation): Help improve our docs, including this one!
|
|
- [**Code**](https://python.langchain.com/docs/contributing/code): Help us write code, fix bugs, or improve our infrastructure.
|
|
- [**Integrations**](https://python.langchain.com/docs/contributing/integrations): Help us integrate with your favorite vendors and tools.
|
|
|
|
### 🚩GitHub Issues
|
|
|
|
Our [issues](https://github.com/langchain-ai/langchain/issues) page is kept up to date with bugs, improvements, and feature requests.
|
|
|
|
There is a taxonomy of labels to help with sorting and discovery of issues of interest. Please use these to help organize issues.
|
|
|
|
If you start working on an issue, please assign it to yourself.
|
|
|
|
If you are adding an issue, please try to keep it focused on a single, modular bug/improvement/feature.
|
|
If two issues are related, or blocking, please link them rather than combining them.
|
|
|
|
We will try to keep these issues as up-to-date as possible, though
|
|
with the rapid rate of development in this field some may get out of date.
|
|
If you notice this happening, please let us know.
|
|
|
|
### 🙋Getting Help
|
|
|
|
Our goal is to have the simplest developer setup possible. Should you experience any difficulty getting setup, please
|
|
contact a maintainer! Not only do we want to help get you unblocked, but we also want to make sure that the process is
|
|
smooth for future contributors.
|
|
|
|
In a similar vein, we do enforce certain linting, formatting, and documentation standards in the codebase.
|
|
If you are finding these difficult (or even just annoying) to work with, feel free to contact a maintainer for help -
|
|
we do not want these to get in the way of getting good code into the codebase.
