## Developing/Contributing Notes
## Developing/Contributing
### Setup
1. Fork this repo, rather than cloning directly.
1. Run `go get github.com/mjibson/esc`
1. Then `go get` your github fork, similarly to the command in the Building section above.
1. Run `go generate`
1. Run `go build`
1. Make and commit your changes, then submit a Pull Request (PR) through GitHub from your fork to `github.com/devict/ictgj-voting`
### Notes
* Pass in the `-dev` flag to enable development mode (load assets from the file system instead of embedded).
* After making changes to assets (templates, javascript, css) be sure to run `go generate` before `go build` - this regenerates the `assets.go` file
* Please use the go tooling to match the standard go coding style.
