#### Git/GitHub Specifics
- [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0) is used as a guideline for commit messages. This allows us to easily generate changelogs for releases.
- See some [examples](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/#examples) of what this looks like in practice.
- Use clear and concise commit messages. If your commit does too much, either consider breaking it up into smaller commits or providing extra detail in the commit description.
- Use imperative-style present-tense commit messages. Examples:
- "Add feature foo"
- "Change method bar"
- "Fix function foobar"
- Pull Requests should have an adequate title and description which clearly outline your intentions and changes/additions. Feel free to provide screenshots, GIFs, or videos, especially for UI changes.
