# Contact (https://microcharts.dev/contact)

microcharts is an open-source project maintained in the open. Everything below reaches the maintainer; the issue tracker reaches them fastest.

## Report a bug

Open an issue at [https://github.com/ganapativs/microcharts/issues](https://github.com/ganapativs/microcharts/issues). Include the chart, the props you passed, the React version, and whether it rendered on the server, the client, or both.

A minimal reproduction closes a bug faster than a description of one. The examples in the repository are a working starting point.

## Propose a chart type or a prop

Open an issue first, before writing code. The catalog is deliberately bounded, so a new type has to clear the admission bar: a data story the existing 106 types cannot already tell, one honest encoding channel, and readability at 200×60 px without training.

The same applies to new props. `CONTRIBUTING.md` in the repository carries the full policy, and [/docs/design-notes](https://microcharts.dev/docs/design-notes) explains what has already been ruled out and why.

## Report a security issue

Do not open a public issue. Report privately through [GitHub's private vulnerability reporting](https://github.com/ganapativs/microcharts/security/advisories/new), or email **vsg.inbox@gmail.com**.

You get an acknowledgement within a few days. Once a fix ships, the advisory is disclosed with credit to the reporter unless you prefer to stay anonymous.
