Contributing to MapComplete

===========================

Hi! Thanks for checking out how to contribute to MapComplete!
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
There are multiple ways to contribute:
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
- Translating MapComplete to your own language can be done on [this website](https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/mapcomplete/)
 | 
			
		||||
- If you encounter a bug, the [issue tracker](https://github.com/pietervdvn/MapComplete/issues) is the place to be
 | 
			
		||||
- If you want to improve a theme, create a new theme, spot a typo in the repo... the best way is to open a pull request.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
People who stick around and contribute in a meaningful way, _might_ be granted write access to the repository. This is done on a purely subjective basis, e.g. after a few pull requests and if you are a member of the OSM community.
