# Contributing to Certimate
Thank you for taking the time to improve Certimate! Below is a guide for submitting a PR (Pull Request) to the main Certimate repository.
- [Contributing to Certimate](#contributing-to-certimate)
- [Prerequisites](#prerequisites)
- [Making Changes in the Go Code](#making-changes-in-the-go-code)
- [Making Changes in the Admin UI](#making-changes-in-the-admin-ui)
## Prerequisites
- Go 1.22+ (for Go code changes)
- Node 20+ (for Admin UI changes)
If you haven't done so already, you can fork the Certimate repository and clone your fork to work locally:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/your_username/certimate.git
```
> **Important:**
> It is recommended to create a new branch from `main` for each bug fix or feature. If you plan to submit multiple PRs, ensure the changes are in separate branches for easier review and eventual merge.
> Keep each PR focused on a single feature or fix.
## Making Changes in the Go Code
Once you have made changes to the Go code in Certimate, follow these steps to run the project:
1. Navigate to the root directory.
2. Start the service by running:
```bash
go run main.go serve
```
This will start a web server at `http://localhost:8090` using the prebuilt Admin UI located in `ui/dist`.
**Before submitting a PR to the main repository, consider:**
- Format your source code by using [gofumpt](https://github.com/mvdan/gofumpt).
- Adding unit or integration tests for your changes. Certimate uses Gos standard `testing` package. You can run tests using the following command (while in the root project directory):
```bash
go test ./...
```
## Making Changes in the Admin UI
Certimates Admin UI is a single-page application (SPA) built using React and Vite.
To start the Admin UI:
1. Navigate to the `ui` project directory.
2. Install the necessary dependencies by running:
```bash
npm install
```
3. Start the Vite development server:
```bash
npm run dev
```
You can now access the running Admin UI at `http://localhost:5173` in your browser.
Since the Admin UI is a client-side application, you will also need to have the Certimate backend running. You can either manually run Certimate or use a prebuilt executable.
Any changes you make in the Admin UI will be automatically reflected in the browser without requiring a page reload.
After completing your changes, build the Admin UI so it can be embedded into the Go package:
```bash
npm run build
```
Once all steps are completed, you are ready to submit a PR to the main Certimate repository.
