Contribute to our GitHub Projects

Arizona Digital uses GitHub Projects to manage issue tracking for its products. To contribute, you can check for open issues and claim an unassigned ticket you want to work on. Or, if the issue you’re interested in hasn’t been created yet, you can create a new issue and assign yourself to it. For more details about working on Arizona Bootstrap, see the Contributing documentation.

Code for Arizona Digital projects is contained in our GitHub repositories. (We formerly used Bitbucket for UA Bootstrap.) Our repos are public and can be cloned if you want to contribute or review code. Below are links to our main code repositories.
