# Contributing
First, thank you for contributing 💖
Any contribution of any skill level is highly appreciated and welcome.
## Philosophy
There's a simple philosophy behind the Spaceship:
* **Show only what's needed.** The prompt should not be overloaded, it shows only what user needs at the moment (current directory, git branch, etc).
* **Work out of the box.** The prompt should work right after installation without any additional configuration. Install it and use it.
* **Be configurable.** It works without configuration, but if a configuration is needed, it provides an easy-to-use interface for customization.
* **Maintain performance.** Any change should be made with performance in mind. We aim to keep the prompt fast and robust. If you spot any point where performance could be improved, we will gladly accept your contribution.
## Architecture
The project begins in [`spaceship.zsh`](https://github.com/spaceship-prompt/spaceship-prompt/blob/master/spaceship.zsh) file. It sources files from the `lib` folders, registers Zsh hooks and kicks off the section loading.
We use [`zsh-async`](https://github.com/mafredri/zsh-async) for asynchronous rendering of sections. We always keep a copy of this library as a fallback in case a user doesn't have `zsh-async` installed.
## Section Checklist
The simplest way to create a section is to follow this guide:
[**➡️ Creating a custom section**](https://spaceship-prompt.sh/advanced/creating-section)
Spaceship aims to show only necessary information to the user, so we carefully consider the inclusion of new sections. Commonly we accept sections that are showing the contextual information, like runtime version, current directory, git status, compiler version, etc.
Sections for the version of frameworks, libraries, versions of CLI tools, etc can be included, but with considerations. It's better to make such section as an external one, so it can be installed optionally.
When adding a new section to Spaceship, here's a checklist you should follow:
- [ ] Add a section to `sections` folder.
- [ ] Include a section to prompt order options in `spaceship.zsh` file.
- [ ] Add tests for section in `tests` folder. You can use [crystal](https://github.com/spaceship-prompt/spaceship-prompt/blob/master/tests/crystal.test.zsh) or [deno](https://github.com/spaceship-prompt/spaceship-prompt/blob/master/tests/deno.test.zsh) tests as examples.
- [ ] Add documentation for a section in `docs/sections` folder.
- [ ] Include a reference for section in `mkdocs.yml` file.
- [ ] Include a reference for section in `config/prompt.md` file.
- [ ] Add a section to the registry in `docs/registry/internal.json`
> **Note:** Do not add translation files for a section manually. Those should and will be added via Crowdin automatically.
