Contributing to the Rust Exercism Track

This track is a work in progress. Please take all the value you can from it, but if you notice any way to improve it, we are eager for pull requests. Fixing a typo in documentation is every bit as valid a contribution as a massive addition of code.

A work of art is never finished, merely abandoned.

-- Paul Valéry

Nonetheless, feel free to peruse what we have written thus far!

Contributions welcome :)

As one of the many tracks in Exercism, contributions here should observe Exercism standards like the Code of Conduct. This document introduces the ways you can help and what maintainers expect of contributors.

Ways to Contribute

As with many Open Source projects, work abounds. Here are a few categories of welcome contribution:

  • improving existing exercises
  • creating new exercises
  • improving internal tooling
  • updating documentation
  • fixing typos, misspellings, and grammatical errors

Merging Philosophy

A pull request should address one logical change. This could be small or big.

For example, #1175 fixed a single typo in a single file after minutes of collaboration.

It was a small, short pull request with one logical change.

#653 introduced the doubly linked list exercise after months of collaboration.

It was a big, long-running pull request with one logical change.
