Clarification on Procedure: Direct Pull Request or Issue Creation?

Community Ask OpenELIS

Hey @mozzymutesa,

When contributing to the codebase, I often come across small bugs that only require a few changes to fix. I’m just wondering: do I need to create an issue before submitting a pull request for these minor fixes, or can I go ahead and submit the pull request directly? I just want to know the process preferred by OpenELIS Global to ensure I’m following the correct procedure.

Hey @Ankit-Matth ,

It’s generally a good practice to create an issue before raising a PR. This helps the maintainer understand the specific issue you’re addressing and makes tracking and reviewing changes smoother.
