Contributor Guide

Bug reports, design discussion, and patches are welcome. This project follows the Apache DataFusion contribution model.

Filing issues and discussing changes

• File bugs and feature requests on GitHub issues.

• For larger or design-level discussion, the mailing list is dev@datafusion.apache.org.

• Please open an issue before sending a PR for any significant change so the approach can be agreed on first.

Development workflow
