# Contributing
Our website is powered by Vue and VuePress - which opens up a couple of different routes for contribution. One is contributing in the form of pure content; the other is contributing to the Vue components themselves. We'll outline those two processes below.
# Updating or adding new content
VuePress makes updating and adding new content reasonably straightforward. If you're looking to improve a page, each page has a built-in link that takes you right to the MD file editor on GitHub. If you want to create a new page that gets a bit more complex but we'll outline that process down below.
# Updating content
First, make sure you have a GitHub account. If you don't and would like to contribute, please reach out to Dan via email or slack.
Visit a page on the website. Let's go with our "Welcome to Denver" Page
Scroll all the way down the page, you should see a "Help Us Improve This Page" link. Click that.
You may need to sign in to GitHub here.
You should see GitHub's built-in file editor. We use Markdown for all of our pages - if you're unfamiliar with Markdown syntax check out this handy guide
Make your edits. Have fun here! Add copy, emojis, etc. We'll review it.
Scroll down to the "Commit changes" section - add a proper title and description, and then select "Create a new branch for this commit and start a pull request."
Fire off your pull request, we'll review it and work with you if any updates need to be made.
Thanks for contributing!
# Adding a new page
If you'd like to add a new page, we'll need to account for a few things first. Are you adding a new top-level page? Will this go within a specific subsection? If a new page sounds viable, we advise you chat it out in our #topic-community channel in the Denver Devs Slack.
# Updating or adding Vue components
VuePress handles components just like a typical Vue installation - except it bundles them in a different place. To find our components, you'll need to visit denverdevs.org/docs/.vuepress/components/
- that's where you'll find them.
We suggest pulling this repo down and working on it locally.
