The guidelines cover important information such as the difference between documentation and guides, how to use the provided components and where to put static assets.
We have tried to make contributing to the Vercel documentation as easy as possible, especially for those new to Open Source. If anything is unclear or you have any questions then please create an issue to discuss your contribution and how best to make it.
Reporting Issues
We actively encourage our community to raise issues and provide feedback on areas of the Vercel documentation that could be improved.
An issue can be raised by clicking the 'Issues' tab at the top of the repository, followed by the Green 'New issue' button. To make this process as easy as possible we have created a few basic templates to choose from, there are, however, often cases that will fall outside of the templates provided.
If your issue doesn't fit with any of the templates then that's okay, please submit it as a 'Documentation Issue or Request'. When submitting an issue, please thoroughly and concisely describe the problem you are experiencing so that we may easily understand and resolve the issue in a timely manner.
