SoundCleod is meant to be a lightweight desktop application for soundcloud.com. Although there are thousands of ways to extend the functionality of both the application and the website please be very considerate when coming up with new ideas.
These are the new features that are welcome in SoundCleod:
- Things users can do when using soundcloud.com with traditional web browsers but not with SoundCleod
- Improving desktop integration of SoundCleod as a media player
There are a few things that will not be accepted:
- Adding features to soundcloud.com or removing existing ones
- Removing ads from soundcloud.com (consider buying SoundCloud Go subscription to remove ads)
- Anything that makes copyright infringement possible or easy
- Anything that makes spamming possible or easy
- Changes introducing security risk
There are a few conventions to follow:
- Indent with two spaces
- No semicolons in JavaScript
- Change one thing only in a pull request
- Make sure there are no failing tests, code quality and styling errors (
npm run verifymust pass) - Keep commit messages short
- Use the present tense in commit messages ("Add feature" not "Added feature")
- Use the imperative mood in commit messages ("Move cursor to..." not "Moves cursor to...")
