The [Joplin Forum](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/) is the community driven place for user support, general discussion about Joplin, problems with installation, new features and software development questions. It is possible to login with your GitHub account. Don't use the issue tracker for support questions.
- For web clipper bugs, **please provide the URL causing the issue**. Sometimes the clipper works in one page but not in another so it is important to know what URL has a problem.
Please check that your request has not already been posted in the [Github Issue Tracker](https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue). If it has, **up-voting the issue** increases the chances it'll be noticed and implemented in the future. "+1" comments are not tracked.
Avoid listing multiple requests in one report in the [Github Issue Tracker](https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue). One issue per request makes it easier to track and discuss it.
Joplin is available in multiple languages thanks to the help of its users. You can help translate Joplin to your language or keep it up to date. Please read the documentation about [Localisation](https://joplinapp.org/#localisation).
If you want to start contributing to the project's code, please follow these guidelines before creating a pull request:
- Bug fixes are always welcome. Start by reviewing the list of [essential issues](https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Aessential)
- Before adding a new feature, ask about it in the [Github Issue Tracker](https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue) or the [Joplin Forum](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/), or check if existing discussions exist to make sure the new functionality is desired.
- **Changes that will consist in more than 50 lines of code should be discussed the [Joplin Forum](https://discourse.joplinapp.org/)**, so that you don't spend too much time implementing something that might not be accepted.
- **Please do not add or remove optional characters, such as spaces or colons.** Please setup your editor so that it only changes what you are working on and is not making automated changes elsewhere. The reason for this is that small white space changes make diff hard to read and can cause needless conflicts.
When submitting a pull request for a new feature or bug fix, please add unit tests for your code. Unit testing GUI changes is not always possible so it is not required, but any change in a file under /lib for example should be unit tested.
The tests are under CliClient/tests. To get them running, you first need to build the CLI app:
To run the test units, you must have an instance of the cli app running. In a first window navigate into `CliClient` and run:
```sh
./run.sh
```
> If you get an error like `Error: Cannot find module '../locales/index.js'`, this means you must (a) rebuild translations or (b) take > them from one of the other apps. To do option b, you can run the following command to copy them from the `ReactNativeClient` directory:>
