## Contributing
To contribute:
- [Fork the repository](https://github.com/fosscord/fosscord-client/fork)
- Run the building instructions.
- Commit & Push.
- Pull Request & Done!
### What can I contribute?
- "Core" features like settings, editing messages, dms, markdown rendering, etc. What do you think are basic features that you would want? Some of the GitHub Issues apply to this.
- Implementing other things like voice/video is fine too, though
- [This](https://github.com/fosscord/fosscord-client/issues/21) is a good starting point and lists all things that are still missing from the client.
