## When should documentation changes be done?
|
||||
|
||||
- Whenever a new feature is added, a bug is fixed, or a breaking change is made, it should be documented where appropriate (ex: `README.md`, changelog, etc.)

- Whenever a new feature is added, a bug is fixed, or a breaking change is made, it should be documented where

|

- New methods of installation are always appreciated and should be documented
|
||||
|
||||
## What pages need documentation?
|
||||
|
||||
There are a few areas where documentation changes are often needed:
|
||||
|
||||
- The [extended documentation](https://clementtsang.github.io/bottom/nightly/) (AKA here)
|
||||
- The [`README.md`](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/blob/master/README.md)
|
||||
- The help menu inside of the application (located [here](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/blob/master/src/constants.rs))
|
||||
- The [extended documentation](https://clementtsang.github.io/bottom/nightly/) (here)
|
||||
- The [`CHANGELOG.md`](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md)

### `README.md` or `CHANGELOG.md`

<h3><code>README.md</code> or <code>CHANGELOG.md</code></h3>
|
||||
|
||||
For changes to [`README.md`](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/blob/master/README.md) and [`CHANGELOG.md`](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md), just follow the formatting provided and use any editor.
|
||||
|
||||
### Help menu
|
||||
Generally, changes to [`CHANGELOG.md`](https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md) will be handled
|
||||
by a maintainer, and changes should follow the [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/) format, as
|
||||
well as link to the relevant PR or issue.
|
||||
|
||||
<h3>Help menu</h3>
|
||||

For changes to the help menu, try to refer to the existing code within `src/constants.rs` on how the help menu is generated.

They aren't needed but it'll help with validating your changes.
