We want the Jekyll Manager documentation to be the best it can be. We've open-sourced our docs and we welcome any pull requests if you find it lacking. Any time you propose a code change, you should also include updates to the documentation and tests within the same pull request.
If your contribution changes any Jekyll Manager behavior, make sure to update the documentation. Documentation lives in the /docs
folder (spoiler alert: it's a Jekyll site!). If the docs are missing information, please feel free to add it in. Great docs make a great project. Include changes to the documentation within your pull request, and once merged, the site will be updated.
You can find the documentation in the /docs
directory. See the section above, submitting a pull request for information on how to propose a change.
