Orekit development

Hello folks, my name is Price and I’m looking for some good first issue that I can tackle for Orekit. I’m coming from AWS and have good software development skills.

A list of “easy to fix” bugs and other issues can be found here. This is the basic guide to contribute. Basic steps are:

  1. Create your own fork repo from orekit
  2. Pick an issue. Make a comment to the effect that you are addressing it.
  3. Create a new branch from develop on your repo and name it something like issue-number-address-this-problem
  4. Write code
  5. Check that new code passes unit tests and checkstyle
  6. Push to your fork
  7. Create MR that will merge to orekit\develop branch in main orekit repo

Hi!

If it’s for a bug fix, I would recommend for step 3 to create a branch from master or release-13.1 :slight_smile: And for new features or enhancement, develop is the good start.
