Joining the team
Contributing to ClanGen¶
ClanGen is an open-source project, and anyone can contribute to it by making a pull request. Anyone whose PR is merged will gain access to the developer-only channels in our discord server.
Anyone can also apply to become an apprentice developer. Apprentice developers will have access to the developer-only channels on discord and will be able to consult with other developers. Learn more about the apprentice developer role on Development Team Roles.
Important
ClanGen is open-source and collaborative, therefore contributors must be comfortable with their work being modified or removed without notice. While we make efforts to ensure contributors are properly notified of such action and given opportunity to modify their own work, there is no guarantee of such notification.
Applications¶
-
Artists must be able to match with our established art styles. Artists with skills drawing animals, environments, and humans are all considered. Artists are not required to have coding knowledge.
-
Writers must be able to abide by our writing standards and be willing to learn how to implement their work into the game through an IDE and GitHub. Resources and assistance will be provided to those accepted through this application. This wiki also includes expansive resources for writers to reference.
-
We encourage coders to have experience working in Python as well as working within a collaborative team.
-
We're still working to expand our resources regarding audio style, however we encourage you to reference the current audio within the game when considering if you would like to apply.
Contributing to the Documentation¶
This documentation is built by the efforts of volunteers, just like the rest of ClanGen. Anyone is free to make contributions here, from as small as a typo fix to as large as full-scale feature documentation.
