# Guide for code contributions

## Branch model

vimtex is developed mainly through the master branch, and pull requests should
be [fork based](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/).

## Code style used with vimtex

When submitting code for vimtex, please adhere to the following standards:

- Use `shiftwidth=2` - no tabs!
- Write readable code
  - Break lines for readability
    - Line should not be longer than 80 columns
  - Use comments:
    - For complex code that is difficult to understand
    - Simple code do not need comments
  - Use (single) empty lines to separate logical blocks of code
  - Use good variable names
    - The name should indicate what the variable is/does
    - Variable names should be lower case
    - Local function variables should be preceded with `l:`
- Use markers for folding (see code for examples)
