-# How to Contribute?
+## Contributing Code

-## Testing
+### Before You Start

-* Test the latest changes to WinUtil by running the pre-release and reporting issues you are encountering to help us continually improve WinUtil!
+- Keep each pull request focused on a single feature or fix.
+- Avoid unnecessary formatting changes or large unrelated edits.
+- Document what changed and why in your PR description.

-#### **Run the latest pre-release**
-   ```ps1
-   irm https://christitus.com/windev | iex
-   ```
+---

-!!! bug "Keep in mind"
+## Basic Git Workflow

-     This is a pre-release and should be treated as such. It exists for developers to test the utility and report or fix bugs before they get added to the stable release. Don't use it in production!
+### 1. Fork the Repository

-## Issues
+Go to the ChrisTitusTech/winutil repository on GitHub and click the Fork button in the top right corner.

-* If you encounter any challenges or problems with the script, I kindly request that you submit them via the "Issues" tab on the GitHub repository. By filling out the provided template, you can provide specific details about the issue, allowing me (and others in the community) to promptly address any bugs or consider feature requests.

-## Contribute Code
+---

-* Pull requests are now handled directly on the **MAIN branch**. This was done since we can now select specific releases to launch via releases in GitHub.
+### 2. Clone Your Fork

-* If you're doing code changes, then you can submit a PR to the `main` branch.
-
-!!! warning "Important"
-
-     Do not use a code formatter, make massive amounts of line changes, or make multiple feature changes. EACH FEATURE CHANGE SHOULD BE IT'S OWN PULL REQUEST!
-
-     Do not open a pull request that adds support for other languages to WinUtil for now, until we decide how we want to move forward with language support.
-
-* When creating pull requests, it is essential to thoroughly document all changes made. This includes, but is not limited to, documenting any additions made to the `tweaks` section and corresponding `undo tweak`, so users are able to remove the newly added tweaks if necessary, and comprehensive documentation is required for all code changes. Document your changes and briefly explain why you made your changes in your Pull Request Description. Failure to adhere to this format may result in the denial of the pull request. Additionally, any code lacking sufficient documentation may also be denied.
-
-* By following these guidelines, we can maintain a high standard of quality and ensure that the codebase remains organized and well-documented.
-
-!!! note
-
-     When creating a function, please include "WPF" or "WinUtil" in the file name so it can be loaded into the runspace.
-
-## Walk through
-
-* This is a guide for beginners. If you are still having issues, look at the following official GitHub documentation:
-    * [Commit through WEB](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/committing-changes-to-your-project/creating-and-editing-commits/about-commits)
-    * [Commit through GitHub Desktop](https://docs.github.com/en/desktop/making-changes-in-a-branch/committing-and-reviewing-changes-to-your-project-in-github-desktop#about-commits)
-    * [Create a Pull Request](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request)

-!!! info

-     This is a diagram to guide you through the process. It may vary depending on the type of change you're making.
+---

-### Fork the Repo
-* Fork the WinUtil Repository [here](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil) to create a copy that will be available in your repository list.
+### 3. Create a Branch

-![Fork Image](/docs/assets/images/Fork-Button-Dark.png#gh-dark-mode-only)
+Never work directly on `main`.

-![Fork Image](/docs/assets/images/Fork-Button-Light.png#only-light#gh-light-mode-only)
+Create a branch related to your change:

-### Clone the Fork
-!!! tip
+```powershell
+git checkout -b feature-name
+```

-     While you can make your changes directly through the Web, we recommend cloning the repo to your device using the application GitHub Desktop (available in WinUtil) to test your fork easily.
+Example:

-* Install GitHub Desktop if it is not already installed.
-* Log in using the same GitHub account you used to fork WinUtil.
-* Choose the fork under "Your Repositories" and press "clone {repo name}"
-* Create a new branch and name it something relatable to your changes.
+```powershell
+git checkout -b add-firefox-tweak
+```

-* Now you can modify WinUtil to your liking using your preferred text editor.
+---

+### 4. Edit the Code

-### Testing your changes
+Open the project in your preferred text editor and make your changes.

-* To test to see if your changes work as intended, run the following commands in a PowerShell terminal as admin:
+Keep changes small and focused.

-* Change the directory where you are running the commands to the forked project.
-* `cd {path to the folder with the compile.ps1}`
-* Run the following command to compile and run WinUtil:
-* `.\Compile.ps1 -run`
+---

-![Compile](/docs/assets/images/Complie.png)
+### 5. Test Your Changes

-* After seeing that your changes work properly, feel free to commit the changes to the repository and make a PR. For help on that, follow the documentation below.
+Open Pwsh (Not Powershell) as Administrator.

-### Committing the changes
-* Before committing your changes, please discard changes made to the `winutil.ps1` file, like the following:
+Go to the project folder:

-![Push Commit Image](/docs/assets/images/Discard-GHD.png)
+```powershell
+cd path\to\winutil
+```

-* Now, commit your changes once you are happy with the result.
+Run:

-![Commit Image](/docs/assets/images/Commit-GHD.png)
+```powershell
+.\Compile.ps1 -Run
+```

-* Push the changes to upload them to your fork on github.com.
+Verify:

-![Push Commit Image](/docs/assets/images/Push-Commit.png)
+- WinUtil launches correctly
+- Your feature works
+- Nothing else breaks

-### Making a PR
-* To make a PR on your repo under a new branch linking to the main branch, a button will show and say Preview and Create pull request. Click that button and fill in all the information that is provided on the template. Once all the information is filled in correctly, check your PR to make sure there is no WinUtil.ps1 file attached to the PR. Once everything is good, make the PR and wait for Chris (the maintainer) to accept or deny your PR. Once it is accepted by Chris, you will be able to see your changes in the "/windev" build.
-* If you do not see your feature in the main "/win" build, that is fine. All new changes go into the /windev build to make sure everything is working OK before going fully public.
-* Congratulations! You just submitted your first PR. Thank you so much for contributing to WinUtil.
+If something fails, fix it before committing.
+
+---
+
+### 6. Review Your Changes
+
+Check what changed:
+
+```powershell
+git status
+```
+
+Review the diff:
+
+```powershell
+git diff
+```
+
+Make sure you did not accidentally modify unrelated files.
+
+---
+
+### 7. Commit Your Changes
+
+Stage files:
+
+```powershell
+git add .
+```
+
+Commit them:
+
+```powershell
+git commit -m "Add feature description"
+```
+
+Example:
+
+```powershell
+git commit -m "Add Firefox package tweak"
+```
+
+---
+
+### 8. Push Your Branch
+
+```powershell
+git push origin branch-name
+```
+
+Example:
+
+```powershell
+git push origin add-firefox-tweak
+```
+
+---
+
+### 9. Open a Pull Request
+
+Go to your fork on GitHub.
+
+GitHub will show a button to create a pull request.
+<img width="1009" height="71" alt="{C8C6A3CC-79D4-44FD-A54C-4C5717F12730}" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0419d193-d4e7-47c0-87cf-b986742201a0" />
+
+Before submitting:
+
+- Explain what changed
+- Explain why you changed it
+- Make sure unrelated files are not included
+
+Once submitted, maintainers will review your PR.

+git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/winutil.git
+cd winutil
 ```
-> [!NOTE]
-> This is a diagram to guide you through the process. It may vary depending on the type of change you're making.

-### Fork the Repo
-* Fork the Winutil Repository [here](https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/Winutil) to create a copy that will be available in your repository list.
+---

-{{< image src="images/Fork-Button" alt="Fork Image" >}}
+### 3. Create a Branch

-### Clone the Fork
+Never work directly on `main`.

-> [!TIP]
-> While you can make your changes directly through the Web, we recommend cloning the repo to your device using the application GitHub Desktop (available in Winutil) to test your fork easily.
+Create a branch related to your change:

-* Install GitHub Desktop if it is not already installed.
-* Log in using the same GitHub account you used to fork Winutil.
-* Choose the fork under "Your Repositories" and press "clone {repo name}"
-* Create a new branch and name it something relatable to your changes.
+```bash
+git checkout -b feature-name
+```

-* Now you can modify Winutil to your liking using your preferred text editor.
+Example:

+```bash
+git checkout -b add-firefox-tweak
+```

-### Testing your changes
+---

-* To test to see if your changes work as intended, run the following commands in a PowerShell terminal as admin:
+### 4. Edit the Code

-* Change the directory where you are running the commands to the forked project.
-* `cd {path to the folder with the compile.ps1}`
-* Run the following command to compile and run Winutil:
-* `.\Compile.ps1 -run`
+Open the project in your preferred text editor and make your changes.

-{{< image src="images/Compile" alt="Compile" >}}
+Keep changes small and focused.

-* After seeing that your changes work properly, feel free to commit the changes to the repository and make a PR. For help on that, follow the documentation below.
+---

-### Committing the changes
-* Before committing your changes, please discard changes made to the `Winutil.ps1` file, like the following:
+### 5. Test Your Changes

-{{< image src="images/Discard-GHD" alt="Push Commit Image" >}}
+Open PowerShell as Administrator.

-* Now, commit your changes once you are happy with the result.
+Go to the project folder:

-{{< image src="images/Commit-GHD" alt="Commit Image" >}}
+```powershell
+cd path\to\winutil
+```

-* Push the changes to upload them to your fork on github.com.
+Run:

-{{< image src="images/Push-Commit" alt="Push Commit Image" >}}
+```powershell
+.\Compile.ps1 -Run
+```

-### Making a PR
-* To make a PR on your repo under a new branch linking to the main branch, a button will show and say Preview and Create pull request. Click that button and fill in all the information that is provided on the template. Once all the information is filled in correctly, check your PR to make sure there is no Winutil.ps1 file attached to the PR. Once everything is good, make the PR and wait for Chris (the maintainer) to accept or deny your PR. Once it is accepted by Chris, you will be able to see your changes in the "/windev" build.
-* If you do not see your feature in the main "/win" build, that is fine. All new changes go into the /windev build to make sure everything is working OK before going fully public.
-* Congratulations! You just submitted your first PR. Thank you so much for contributing to Winutil.
+Verify:
+
+- WinUtil launches correctly
+- Your feature works
+- Nothing else breaks
+
+If something fails, fix it before committing.
+
+---
+
+### 6. Review Your Changes
+
+Check what changed:
+
+```bash
+git status
+```
+
+Review the diff:
+
+```bash
+git diff
+```
+
+Make sure you did not accidentally modify unrelated files.
+
+---
+
+### 7. Commit Your Changes
+
+Stage files:
+
+```bash
+git add .
+```
+
+Commit them:
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "Add feature description"
+```
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+git commit -m "Add Firefox package tweak"
+```
+
+---
+
+### 8. Push Your Branch
+
+```bash
+git push origin branch-name
+```
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+git push origin add-firefox-tweak
+```
+
+---
+
+### 9. Open a Pull Request
+
+Go to your fork on GitHub.
+
+GitHub will show a button to create a pull request.

 ### Essential Tweaks
-Essential Tweaks are modifications and optimizations that are generally safe for most users to implement. These tweaks are designed to enhance system performance, improve privacy, and reduce unnecessary system activities. They are considered low-risk and are recommended for users who want to ensure their system runs smoothly and efficiently without delving too deeply into complex configurations. The goal of Essential Tweaks is to provide noticeable improvements with minimal risk, making them suitable for a wide range of users, including those who may not have advanced technical knowledge.
+Essential Tweaks are the safest starting point for most systems. They focus on lower-risk changes that improve usability, reduce noise, and avoid the more invasive changes found in advanced options.

 ### Advanced Tweaks (CAUTION)
-Advanced Tweaks are intended for experienced users who have a solid understanding of their system and the potential implications of making deep-level changes. These tweaks involve more significant alterations to the operating system and can provide substantial customization. However, they also carry a higher risk of causing system instability or unintended side effects if not implemented correctly. Users who choose to apply Advanced Tweaks should proceed with caution, ensuring they have adequate knowledge and backups in place to recover if something goes wrong. These tweaks are not recommended for novice users or those unfamiliar with the inner workings of their operating system.
+Advanced Tweaks are for users who understand the side effects of deeper Windows changes. Create a restore point first, review each item, and avoid treating the full advanced list as a one-click baseline.

 Winutil includes a built-in **Win11 Creator** tool that lets you take an official Windows 11 ISO and produce a customized, debloated version. The resulting image can remove telemetry, bypass hardware requirement checks, and enable local account setup out of the box. You can export the result as a new ISO file or write it directly to a USB drive.

 > [!IMPORTANT]
 > You need an **official Windows 11 ISO** from [Microsoft's website](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11) before starting. Custom, modified, or non-official ISOs are not supported. The process uses ~10–15 GB of temporary disk space, so make sure you have room.

+> [!NOTE]
+> This workflow is intended for fresh Windows installs, not in-place upgrades of an existing installation.
