# How to contribute to Codecrypt?
|
|
|
|
1. Fork and add a feature or a correction
|
|
2. Check that the feature/correction is applicable (see below)
|
|
3. Check that the code is in a good shape (also below)
|
|
4. Send pull request
|
|
5. Profit
|
|
|
|
### Applicable features
|
|
|
|
- All cryptography should be post-quantum (this mainly removes group-based
|
|
asymmetric primitives)
|
|
- The program is strictly off-line, almost-non-interactive, commandline only
|
|
- Algorithms that are not mainstream are better
|
|
- Less code is always better
|
|
- Less magic is always better
|
|
|
|
### Good shape of the code
|
|
|
|
- Compile with `-Wall`
|
|
- Format the code using `astyle --style=linux -xl -xk -pdtLnU -M80`
|
|
- Try to follow similar naming conventions as the rest of the project
|
|
- Automated memory management is always better
|
|
- Use a modern C++ (unlike what codecrypt started with)
