Contributing Guide

Thank you so much for taking the time to contribute in to htop!

Bug Reports

Bug reports should be posted in the Github issue tracker. Bug reports are extremely important since it's impossible for us to test htop in every possible system, distribution and scenario. Your feedback is what keeps the tool stable and always improving! Thank you!

Pull Requests

Code contributions are most welcome! Just fork the repo and send a pull request. Help is especially appreciated for support of platforms other than Linux. If proposing new features, please be mindful that htop is a system tool that needs to keep a small footprint and perform well on systems under stress -- so unfortunately we can't accept every new feature proposed, as we need to keep the tool slim and maintainable. Great ideas backed by a PR are always carefully considered for inclusion though! Also, PRs containing bug fixes and portability tweaks are always included, please send those in!

Feature Requests

Please label Github issues that are feature requests with the feature request label.
