# Contributing ## Testing Testing the [`vdf`](./vdf) and [`node`](./node) packages requires linking the [native VDF](./crates/vdf). The `test.sh` scripts in the respective directories help with this. ## Pull Requests Contributions are welcome – a new network is rife with opportunities. We are in the process of updating our JIRA board so that it can be made public. The repository has basic coding guidelines: - 80 character line limit, with the exception where gofmt or the syntax is impossible to achieve otherwise - Error wrapping matching function names - Interface composition and dependency injection with Wire ## Building release binaries The following software is required to build release binaries (assuming MacOS ARM): - [Running from source](README.md#running-from-source) dependencies - Docker - [Taskfile](https://taskfile.dev/) Then from the repo root use the following commands to build the release binaries that statically link the [native VDF](./crates/vdf) for the supported platforms: ```shell task build_node_arm64_macos task build_node_arm64_linux task build_node_amd64_linux ``` The output binaries will be in `node/build`.
