Contributing to altinn-components

Thank you for contributing to altinn 3 components!

This project is a collection of reusable components for building web applications for Altinn 3, and not a general-purpose library. If you are looking for a more general-purpose library, you might be looking for Norwegian public sector's Design system.

We appreciate your help in making this project better, and keep in mind that the project is in an early development stage, and we are actively working to improve both the documentation and the codebase.

This project uses Changesets with the Conventional Commits specification in order to generate changelogs, communicating the nature of changes.

To include commits in the changelog, please ensure that you include the following keywords:

  • Start the commit with fix: to trigger a patch (0.0.x) version.
  • Start the commit with feat: to trigger a minor (0.x.0) version.

Other keywords are also supported, but will not trigger a version bump. These keywords include:

  • chore: for changes that do not affect the end user, such as refactoring or updating dependencies.
  • docs: for changes to the documentation.
  • refactor: for changes that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature. but improves the codebase.

To make the changelog more specific, you have the option to scope your commits by adding a keyword in parentheses that indicates the area or aspect you are working on. For example:

  • Modifying documentation for contributing: docs(contributing): add a section on commit messages.
  • Fixing a bug in the Avatar component: fix(avatar): fix bug with incorrect image size.
