Issues, Pull Requests, and Support

We have transitioned to using JIRA for dealing with all pull requests, bugs, and any other support-related issues. Therefore, the GitHub "issues" tab has been disabled.

If you find a bug, or have a helpful suggestion to improve this documentation, please raise it.

Contributing

We welcome all contributions to and recommendations for improving the Perfect documentation. We welcome contributions to Perfect’s documentation. If you spot a typo, bug, or other errata, or have additions or suggestions to recommend, please create a pull request or log an issue in JIRA.

We have a system, written with Perfect, that picks up markdown files dynamically from this repository and incorporates them in an HTML docs site. This system will go live shortly.
