Following contribution guidelines
Before you open an issue or pull request, check to see if the repository has contributing guidelines. The CONTRIBUTING.md file includes information about how the repository maintainer would like you to contribute ideas to the project.
Similar to contributing guidelines, the repository maintainer may have included a template for information to include in an issue or pull request. Completing the prompts from the template may help you get a better response from maintainers.
