# Contributing to Inference-X
|
|
|
|
Welcome. Every contribution matters — whether it's a bug report, a new backend, a translation, or a philosophical challenge to our architecture.
|
|
|
|
## Quick Start
|
|
|
|
1. Fork the relevant repository
|
|
2. Create a feature branch: `git checkout -b feat/your-feature`
|
|
3. Make your changes with clear commit messages
|
|
4. Open a Pull Request with a description of what and why
|
|
|
|
## Contribution Areas
|
|
|
|

|
## Recognition
|
|
|
|
All contributions are tracked. After your first merged PR or published Store item, you become a **Level 1 Contributor** — your name appears in CONTRIBUTORS.md and you earn voting rights in community decisions.
|
|
|
|
See [governance/GOVERNANCE.md](governance/GOVERNANCE.md) for the full contribution level system.
|
|
|
|
## Questions
|
|
|
|
Open an issue or start a discussion. We prefer public conversations over private messages — if you have a question, someone else probably does too.
