## Making Changes
First, we suggest that you fork this GIT repository. This will keep your changes separate from the fast lane. And make pull requests easier.
Once forked, clone your copy of the CSG library.
```
git clone https://github.com/myusername/csg.js.git
cd csg.js
```
**We suggest downloading NPM. This will allow you to generate API documents, and run test suites.**
Once you have NPM, install all the dependencies for development.
```
npm install
```
And, run the test cases to verify the library is functional.
```
npm test
```
And, create the API documentation.
```
npm run build-docs
```
The project is structured as:
- csg.js : library source code
- test/*.js : various test suites
- helpers/*.js : various helper classes for testing
- objects/* : objects created by test suites
- doc/* : generated API documentation
You can now make changes to the library, as well as the test suites.
If you intend to contribute changes back to JSCAD then please be sure to create test cases.
Done? Great! Push the changes back to the fork.
```
git commit changed-file
git add test/new-test-suite.js
git commit test/new-test-suite.js
git push
```
Finally, you can review your changes via GitHub, and create a pull request.
TIPS for successful pull requests:
- Commit often, and comment well
- Follow the [JavaScript Standard Style](https://github.com/feross/standard)
- Create test cases for all changes
- Verify that all tests suites pass
WOW! Thanks for the cool code.
