# WebHost

## Contribution Guidelines
|
||||
**Thank you for your interest in contributing to the Archipelago website!**
|
||||
Much of the content on the website is generated automatically, but there are some things
|
||||
that need a personal touch. For those things, we rely on contributions from both the core
|
||||
team and the community. The current primary maintainer of the website is Farrak Kilhn.
|
||||
He may be found on Discord as `Farrak Kilhn#0418`, or on GitHub as `LegendaryLinux`.
|
||||
|
||||
### Small Changes
|
||||
Little changes like adding a button or a couple new select elements are perfectly fine.
|
||||
Tweaks to style specific to a PR's content are also probably not a problem. For example, if
|
||||
you build a new page which needs two side by side tables, and you need to write a CSS file
|
||||
specific to your page, that is perfectly reasonable.
|
||||
|
||||
### Content Additions
|
||||
Once you develop a new feature or add new content the website, make a pull request. It will
|
||||
be reviewed by the community and there will probably be some discussion around it. Depending
|
||||
on the size of the feature, and if new styles are required, there may be an additional step
|
||||
before the PR is accepted wherein Farrak works with the designer to implement styles.
|
||||
|
||||
### Restrictions on Style Changes
|
||||
A professional designer is paid to develop the styles and assets for the Archipelago website.
|
||||
In an effort to maintain a consistent look and feel, pull requests which *exclusively*
|
||||
change site styles are rejected. Please note this applies to code which changes the overall
|
||||
look and feel of the site, not to small tweaks to CSS for your custom page. The intention
|
||||
behind these restrictions is to maintain a curated feel for the design of the site. If
|
||||
any PR affects the overall feel of the site but includes additive changes, there will
|
||||
likely be a conversation about how to implement those changes without compromising the
|
||||
curated site style. It is therefore worth noting there are a couple files which, if
|
||||
changed in your pull request, will cause it to draw additional scrutiny.
|
||||
|
||||
These closely guarded files are:
|
||||
- `globalStyles.css`
|
||||
- `islandFooter.css`
|
||||
- `landing.css`
|
||||
- `markdown.css`
|
||||
- `tooltip.css`
|
||||
|
||||
### Site Themes
|
||||
There are several themes available for game pages. It is possible to request a new theme in
|
||||
the `#art-and-design` channel on Discord. Because themes are created by the designer, they
|
||||
are not free, and take some time to create. Farrak works closely with the designer to implement
|
||||
these themes, and pays for the assets out of pocket. Therefore, only a couple themes per year
|
||||
are added. If a proposed theme seems like a cool idea and the community likes it, there is a
|
||||
good chance it will become a reality.
