## Financial
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
LibreTime is run by volunteers who write code and manage the project in their
|
||||||
|
spare time. Financial contributions help us pay for our domain and back-end
|
||||||
|
infrastructure. It can also be used to cover the costs of development for
|
||||||
|
important features and conference attendance. If you wish to contribute
|
||||||
|
financially, you can do so through our
|
||||||
|
[OpenCollective](https://opencollective.com/libretime).

sometimes our documentation has gaps. You can help by adding missing sections,

editing the existing content so it is more accessible or creating new content

|
(tutorials, FAQs, etc).

LibreTime uses the [black](https://github.com/psf/black) coding style for Python
|
||||||
|
and you must ensure that your code follows it. If not, the CI will fail and your
|
||||||
|
Pull Request will not be merged. Similarly, the Python import statements are
|
||||||
|
sorted with [isort](https://github.com/pycqa/isort). There is configuration
|
||||||
|
provided for [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/), which will ensure that code
|
||||||
|
matches the expected style and conventions when you commit changes. It is set up
|
||||||
|
by running:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
sudo apt install pre-commit
|
||||||
|
pre-commit install
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can also run it anytime using:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```bash

||||||
|
pre-commit run --all-files
