Contributing and developing a feature

1. Make sure you are in the develop branch git checkout develop
2. Create a new branch with a meaningful name git checkout -b branch_name

4. Clean your project from Android Studio Build/Clean project
5. Add the files you changed git add file_name (avoid using git add .)
6. Commit your changes git commit -m "Message briefly explaining the feature"

8. Push to your repo git push origin branch-name
9. Go into the Github repo and create a pull request explaining your changes
10. If you are requested to make changes, edit your commit using git commit --amend, push again and the pull request will edit automatically

Coding Guidelines

1. Don't use magic numbers or hard-coded strings. Put them in dimens.xml or strings.xml
2. Class names should be in CamelCase. Name activities with names including Activity so it's easier to know what they are.
3. Include spaces between parameters when you call a method for example: Intent(MainActivity.this, GameActivity.class).
4. Give relevant names to buttons and other resources.
5. Use @id instead of @+id when referring to resources that have been already created in xml files.
