### Active contributor

This project is looking for active contributors, especially those well-versed with Android.
If you're interested in becoming an active contributor with write access, create an issue titled 'Active contributor', and create a pull request to address a couple of issues. If it goes well, I'd be happy to give write access to merge PRs to master.

### Formatting for commit messages for merge commits

Any merges to the `master` branch will publish a new version of the NPM package.

This is done using [semantic-release](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release), and therefore, merge commits must follow [the default semantic-release commit message format](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release#commit-message-format) in order for the CI to pick up changes and publish the correct version bump.
