## Reporting bugs
You can either fill an issue at GitHub (preferred) or contact our development
team directly with the e-mail. If you suspect that the issue may not be always
replicable, you can use a script `ultragrid-bugreport-collect.sh` to collect
data about a computer and attach its result. See also [here](REPORTING-BUGS.md).
## Feature requests
Feature requests can be submitted with the same channels as bugs.
## Coding standards
**TODO:** incomplete
### Indenting and whitespaces
- Default indent is 8 spaces width and consists solely of spaces, no tabs.
- Lines should be LF-terminated and there should not contain any whitespaces at the end.
### Control structures
Control structures like if, while, switch etc. should have opening block bracket at the
same line as the statement itself:
```
if (foo) {
do_something();
} else {
do_something_else();
}
```
Functions and methods, on the other hand, should have opening curly braces at
the following line.
### Spaces
### Line length and wrapping
### Naming conventions
## Conclusion
Aside of what is enumerated above, we will be glad if you share with us your
setup, photos or just ideas.
