1. All contributions must be licensed as [GNU GPLv3](https://github.com/Libresonic/libresonic/blob/develop/LICENSE.txt) to be accepted. Use [`git commit --signoff`](https://jk.gs/git-commit.html) to acknowledge this.
2. New features or changes to existing ones must not degrade the user experience. This means do not introduce bugs, remove functionality, or make large changes to existing themes/UI without prior discussion in an Issue.
3. Use sane coding standards. Language best-practices should be followed, comment generously, and avoid "clever" algorithms. Refactoring existing messes is great, but watch out for breakage.
4. Be bold! Without contributions, this project will vanish. If you just want to help out, try [submiting a patch](https://github.com/Libresonic/libresonic/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Apatches-welcome) for an open Issue.
