Before making a Most of the code you'll be using in ShiftOS is documented and Visual Studio will tell you what it all means. +## Can't build the source code? + +There is a bug with the `Baseclass.Contrib.Nuget.Output` package which is a dependency of the GeckoFX webrenderer that causes it to access a DLL that doesn't exist. This will prevent you from compiling the code. To fix it however, I have supplied a copy of the file that's accessing the non-existent DLL in the `source` directory. Copy it to the `source\packages\Baseclass.Contrib.Nuget.Output.2.0.0\build\net40\Baseclass.Contrib.Nuget.Output.targets` file and try rebuilding again. + +The reason you'll experience this issue is because the `packages` directory is in the .gitignore file to prevent even worse side effects and because it's normally a bad practice to hold binaries in a source directory on Git. (**Hypocritical note:** I'm a hypocrite for saying that as some dependencies that aren't supplied by NuGet (well they are but we don't use them) don't get brought over to our AppVeyor build server so they have to be supplied in the code or the build will always fail.) + ## How to contribute You can contribute by forking the source code to your own repo, and pulling it down to your computer using a Git client. We recommend GitHub for Desktop. You can also use Atlassian SourceTree, or any other Git clients. It's up to you. |
