<h3class="ui header">Style Guide</h3>
<p>Contributors should read over the coding guidelines for the project. Most importantly, the guide for language, as it is one of the most important parts about Semantic UI.</p>
<p>When submiting a bug report, please include a set of steps to reproduce the issue and any related information, browser, OS etc. If we can't see the issue then it will make solving things much more difficult.</p>

<h3class="ui dividing header">Expanding UI</h3>
<p>Semantic is looking for people to help contribute new UI components, and suggest extensions for our core library</p>
<p>Semantic is looking for people to help contribute new core UI components, and suggest extensions for the library.</p>
<p>If you have suggestions for components missing from Semantic which you'd like to see in future versions please add them to our public UI Component board. The current list of upcoming components, and their current development status can be seen on the contributor UI board.</p>
<p>We're looking currently for ideas on the best way to expand Semantic to include both core library and third party components. This requires creating a component specification which can be used by anyone to create ui components, and a package management system (website or command line) for authors to distribute them.</p>

<h3class="ui header">Watch Script</h3>
<p>If you are working on fixing a UI element that is part of Semantic, your best bet is to work actively on the file in <code>/src/{type}/{elementname}/</code> while running a watch script from grunt. This will rebuild the docs after you make changes, so you can see if you have corrected the issue you are fixing.</p>

<h3class="ui header">UI Dev Kits</h3>
<p>We are working to create development kits for writing and distributing third party UI definitions. These, are planned to land after our 1.0 release and allow other developers to contribute ui components or reskins of existing components.</p>
<p>For more information on the development of the UI specification for third party components, please visit our community discussion boards on Trello</p>
