Getting Started

The initial tech stack is being defined. Until then, contributors can help by planning content and structure.

1. Fork and clone the repo:

   git clone https://github.com/Pact-Community-Organization/pact-community-website.git
   cd pact-community-website

2. Create a branch linked to an issue (replace N):

   git checkout -b feat/<short-topic>-#N

3. Add or update planning docs under docs/ and assets under design/.
4. Commit with an issue reference (refs or closes):

   git commit -m "docs: add homepage requirements (refs #5)"
   git push -u origin feat/<short-topic>-#N

5. Open a PR describing the change and linking the issue.

When the implementation stack is finalized, this README will include local dev commands and build/deploy steps.

Contribution Guidelines

• Always reference an Issue in commits and PRs (e.g., refs #N or closes #N).
• Keep content consistent with the Foundation’s mission and voice; prefer reusing wording from the Wiki.
• Organize content:
  • docs/ for content plans and requirements
  • design/ for branding and visual guidelines
  • src/ for site source once the stack is chosen
• Follow the Wiki for standards and conventions.
