# Contributing to GitHub Readme Profile
We love your input! We want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:
- Reporting [an issue](https://github.com/FajarKim/github-readme-profile/issues/new?assignees=&labels=bug&template=bug_report.yml).
- [Discussing](https://github.com/FajarKim/github-readme-profile/discussions) the current state of the code.
- Submitting [a fix](https://github.com/FajarKim/github-readme-profile/compare).
- Proposing [new features](https://github.com/FajarKim/github-readme-profile/issues/new?assignees=&labels=enhancement&template=feature_request.yml).
- Becoming a maintainer.
## All Changes Happen Through Pull Requests
Pull requests are the best way to propose changes. We actively welcome your pull requests:
1. Fork the repo and create your branch from `master`.
2. If you've added code that should be tested, add test examples.
3. If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
4. Issue that pull request!
## Theme Contribution
GitHub Readme Profile supports custom theming, and you can contribute new themes to the built‑in collection.
> [!NOTE]
> If you are contributing a theme only for personal use, you can [customize the appearance](/README.md#customization) of your card with URL parameters instead, no pull request needed.
> [!NOTE]
> Your pull request with a new theme will be merged once it receives enough positive feedback from the community (at least 5–10 👍 reactions). This helps ensure that only themes with broad appeal are included. You can also support themes from other contributors by upvoting them.
> [!NOTE]
> Before submitting your theme, please ensure it passes the **WCAG 2.0 Level AA** contrast ratio test. You can use [WebAIM’s contrast checker](https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/) to verify.
To contribute a theme, edit the [`themes/index.ts`](/themes/index.ts) file and add your theme at the end of the file. Follow the existing structure: provide a descriptive name and a set of color definitions (`title_color`, `text_color`, `icon_color`, `border_color`, `bg_color`, etc.).
## Translations Contribution
GitHub Readme Profile supports multiple languages. If your language is missing, you can contribute a translation! See the currently supported languages in [`i18n/README.md`](/i18n/README.md).
To add a new language:
1. Edit the [`i18n/index.ts`](/i18n/index.ts) file.
2. Add a new property to each translation object using the language code as the key. The code should follow the ISO 639-1 standard (e.g., `id`, `fr`, `ja`). Country‑specific codes like `pt-BR` are also acceptable.
3. Provide the translated strings for all keys. You can use the existing translations as a reference.
If you are unsure about the language code, check [this list](https://gist.github.com/FajarKim/91516c2aecbfc8bf65f584d528d5f2b1) for accepted codes.
