# Contribution Guidelines

Please ensure your pull request adheres to the following guidelines:

- Search previous suggestions before making a new one, as yours may be a duplicate.
- Make an individual pull request for each suggestion.
- Edit [applications.json](https://github.com/serhii-londar/open-source-mac-os-apps/blob/master/applications.json) instead of [README.md](https://github.com/serhii-londar/open-source-mac-os-apps/blob/master/README.md).
- Use the following format: 
```json
     {
      "repo_url" : "Link to repository",
      "title" : "Name of application",
      "screenshots" : [
        "Screenshot url 1",
        "Screenshot url 2"
      ],
      "short_description" : "Description of repository",
      "languages" : [
        "Language name"
      ],
      "category" : "Application category"
    }
```
- New categories, or improvements to the existing categorization are welcome.
- Keep descriptions short and simple, but descriptive.
- End all descriptions with a full stop/period.
- Check your spelling and grammar.
- Make sure your text editor is set to remove trailing whitespace.
