This project and everyone participating in it is governed by the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct. By participating, you are expected to uphold this code. Please report unacceptable behavior to pratikborsadiya@gmail.com.
This section guides you through submitting a bug report for Vali Admin. Following these guidelines helps maintainers and the community understand your report 📝, reproduce the behavior 💻 💻, and find related reports 🔎.
Before creating bug reports, please check existing open issues and make sure the issue you are reporting is not already reported and open. When you are creating a bug report, please fill out the required template, the information it asks for helps us resolve issues faster.
Note: If you find a Closed issue that seems like it is the same thing that you're experiencing, open a new issue and include a link to the original issue in the body of your new one.
Bugs are tracked as GitHub issues. Explain the problem and include additional details to help maintainers reproduce the problem:
- Use a clear and descriptive title for the issue to identify the problem.
- Describe the exact steps which reproduce the problem in as many details as possible.
- If you're providing snippets in the issue, use Markdown code blocks.
- Describe the behavior you observed after following the steps and point out what exactly is the problem with that behavior.
- Explain which behavior you expected to see instead and why.

Just like bugs enhancements can also be suggested as GitHub issues.
- Use a clear and descriptive title for the suggestion you are proposing.
- Include related screenshots or animated GIFs for better clarity.
- Describe how would it be useful for the users.
- If you are considering to fix an open issue please comment on the issue that you are working on fixing the issue and how are you planning to fix it.
- Create a new issue if the one you are fixing is not already open and then comment on the issue that you are fixing it.
- This will let the contributors know that the specific issue is currently being fixed and they shold wait sometime before trying to fix the same issue themselves.
- If you are planning to propose a new feature please open an issue for the same feature request prior to starting work on a feature.
- This will help the contributors and maintainers provide feedback and support for the enhancement you are providing.
