# Contributing Guidelines
Welcome to Create Block Theme! All are welcome here.
## How can I contribute?
We welcome contributions in all forms, including code, design, documentation, and triage.
### Development Setup
The basic setup for development is:
- Node/NPM Development Tools
- WordPress Development Site
- Code Editor
#### Prerequisites
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) (v16.9.1)
- [Composer](https://getcomposer.org/) (used for linting PHP)
- WordPress Development Site, such as [wp-env](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/packages/env/README.md) or [Local](https://localwp.com/)
- We recommend using [Node Version Manager](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) (nvm) to manage your Node.js versions
We recommend following the [Gutenberg code contribution guide](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/blob/trunk/docs/contributors/code/getting-started-with-code-contribution.md) for more details on setting up a development environment.
#### Code Setup
[Fork](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo) the Create Block Theme repository, [clone it to your computer](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/cloning-a-repository) and add the WordPress repository as [upstream](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/configuring-a-remote-repository-for-a-fork)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME/create-block-theme.git
cd create-block-theme
git remote add upstream https://github.com/WordPress/create-block-theme.git
```
Run the following commands to install the plugin dependencies:
```bash
npm install
composer install
```
Run `npm run build` to build the plugin.
There are several linter commands available to help ensure the plugin follows the WordPress coding standards:
- CSS: `npm run lint:css` & `npm run lint:css:fix`
- JS: `npm run lint:js` & `npm run lint:js:fix`
- PHP: `npm run lint:php` & `npm run lint:php:fix`
To test a WordPress plugin, you need to have WordPress itself installed. If you already have a WordPress environment setup, use the above Create Block Theme build as a standard WordPress plugin by putting the `create-block-theme` directory in your wp-content/plugins/ directory.
