| 18 | ## What We Need
|
| 19 |
|
| 20 | - **Stars.** One of the easiest ways to help is to star our project. This shows that there is interest for our project and can influence other developers to contribute code.
|
| 21 |
|
| 22 | - **Bug Reports.** Now that there will be more eyes on Autocode, there will likely be issues that are discovered. I will address these issues ASAP.
|
| 23 | - Issues for the [core](ttps://github.com/crystal/autocode) codebase should be reported [here](https://github.com/crystal/autocode/issues).
|
| 24 | - Issues related to specific modules should be reported for their respective repositories which can be found in the sidebar on the module's page (such as https://hub.autocode.run/crystal/handlebars).
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 | - **Modules.** Any language, framework and platform can be modularized into a Spec, Schema, Generator, Engine, Helper, Processor, Transformer and/or Injector. So far, I've created all of Crystal's modules which can be found in the [Crystal Hub](https://hub.autocode.run). All modules are open source and hosted on [GitHub](https://github.com/crystal). Help us improve [crystal/php](https://hub.autocode.run/crystal/php), [crystal/redis](https://hub.autocode.run/crystal/redis), [crystal/sequelize](https://hub.autocode.run/crystal/sequelize) or any of our other 40+ modules. You can even create your own - for your project or someone else's.
|
| 27 |
|
| 28 | - **Documentation.** Our docs are hosted at [https://crystal.readme.io](https://crystal.readme.io). Help us improve them by clicking the "Suggest Edits" link (found on the top-right of each page).
|
| 29 |
|
| 30 | - **Tutorials.** Blogs, videos and more. Tutorials are a great way to learn more about Crystal while helping others in the process.
|
| 31 |
|
| 32 | - **Donations.** Help us fund Autocode and reach our monthly goals here: https://salt.bountysource.com/teams/autocode |
