#### 1. Reporting Bugs and Requesting Features

Creating an issue is a highly valuable contribution. If you've found a bug or have an idea for a new feature, this is the place to start.

* Before creating an issue, please check the existing issues to see if your topic is already being discussed.
38+
* If not, create a new issue, choosing the right option: "Bug Report" or "Feature Request". Try to keep the scope minimal but as detailed as possible.

It's essential because it removes ambiguity and allows our team to observe the problem firsthand, exactly as you are experiencing it.
