We have a few different types of changes in QMK, each requiring a different level of rigor. We'd like you to keep the following guidelines in mind no matter what type of change you're making.

* Check for unnecessary whitespace with `git diff --check` before committing.

* Keymaps: Make sure that `make keyboard:your_new_keymap` does not return an error
* Keyboards: Make sure that `make keyboard:all` does not return any errors

## Documentation
Documentation is one of the easiest ways to get started contributing to QMK. Finding places where the documentation is wrong or incomplete and fixing those is easy! We also very badly need someone to edit our documentation, so if you have editing skills but aren't sure where or how to jump in please [reach out for help](#where-can-i-go-for-help)!
