However, CanJS is made up of many individual github repositories. Ideally, bugs are created within the repository whose code is causing the issue. For example, issues with <a href="../../can-define.html" title="Exports the define method that defines observable properties and their behavior on a prototype object.">can-define</a> can be created at <a href="https://github.com/canjs/can-define/issues/new">canjs/can-define/issues/new</a>.</p> <p>If you do not know which repository your issue belongs to, that's totally ok! Please create your issue in the main <a href="https://github.com/canjs/canjs/issues/new">canjs/canjs issues page</a>. The core team will move the issue to the correct repository if necessary.</p> <p>When creating an issue, it's very helpful to include:</p> <ul> <li>Small examples using tools like JSBin. You can clone the following <a href="http://jsbin.com/ziyiqe/2/edit?html,js,output">CanJS bin</a> that includes everything in CanJS. Make sure it's pointing at the same version of CanJS you are using.</li> <li>Breaking unit tests (optional). See <a href="code.html" title="Learn how contribute a code change to CanJS.">Code</a>.</li> <li>Proposed fix solutions (optional)</li> </ul> <p>Also, please search for previous tickets. If there's something similar, add to that, or give it a <code>+1</code>.</p> <p>Finally, if there are any questions, reach out to us on the <a href="http://forums.donejs.com/c/canjs">CanJS forums</a> or talk to us on the <a href="https://gitter.im/canjs/canjs">Gitter canjs/canjs channel</a>.</p> <h2>Priority, Tags, and Complexity</h2> <p>The <a href="https://donejs.com/About.html#section=section_Team">core team</a> reviews issues and assigns them a <code>P0</code> to <code>P4</code> tag corresponding to the following priorities:</p> <ul> <li><code>P0</code> - An issue that will preempt any other issues currently being worked on.</li> <li><code>P1</code> - A critical feature or bug that needs to be fixed to keep CanJS's high degree of quality.</li> <li><code>P2</code> - A feature or bug that is less likely to be encountered, but something we intend to get to.</li> <li><code>P3</code> - A nice to have. The OS team might get to it, but it's helpful if the community assists.</li> <li><code>P4</code> - A nice to have that the OS team will accept, but will be unlikely to prioritize any effort towards.</li> </ul> <p>There are several ways to influence these priorities:</p> <ul> <li>Offer to pair with a contributor on a solution.</li> <li>Write a good test.</li> <li>Come to a DoneJS Contributors meeting and make your case.</li> <li>Get others from other organizations to <code>+1</code> the issue.</li> <li>Make your case on gitter with a contributor or in the issue.</li> <li>You can always hire <a href="http://bitovi.com">Bitovi</a> or a contributor to make the change.</li> </ul> <p>Also, the core team will often include a complexity indicator in the title that looks like <code>~NUMBER</code>. This is a fibonacci number. <code>~1</code> means its an extremely simple task. <code>~8</code> is about a half day task. <code>~34</code> might take a week of experimentation.</p> </section> <script type="text/javascript"> var docObject = {"src":{"path":"docs/can-guides/contribute/bug-report.md"},"description":"Learn how to submit a bug report. \n","name":"guides/contributing/bug-report","title":"Bug Report","type":"page","parent":"guides/contribute","comment":" ","pathToRoot":"../../.."}; </script> </article> <footer><p>CanJS is part of <a href="http://donejs.com" target="_blank">DoneJS</a>.
