Contributing

Feel free to open a Github issue if you wish to tackle one of the items on the roadmap, or message @RangerMauve directly on whatever platform you can find them on.

This project uses the StandardJS code style. Please format your code with standard --fix or run npm run lint.

To build from source do the following:

• Set up node.js (at least Node 18), git, and yarn
• Set up Node-gyp and its dependencies for your OS
• fork the repo
• Pull your fork to your computer
• Load submodules with git submodule update --init --recursive
• Run yarn or npm install to install dependencies
• Run yarn start or npm start to start the browser and test your changes
• After coding, when ready to submit, run npm run lint or yarn lint to check code style
• Push to your clone
• Submit a pull request

Other notes:

• To debug extensions, run yarn debug to have devtools opened for their background pages
• If you're interested in a CLI for these protocols, check out curld cURL for Distributed Web. That project supports the same protocols as Agregore, but in a terminal way.
• To download the latest versions of ArchiveWeb.page or Ublock Origin, run yarn download-extennsions
