- Rewrote all 26 reference module pages: removed blockquote taglines and horizontal rule separators, added "What You Get" bullet summaries, added constructor/method parameter tables, expanded thin files (graph_store, triplet_store, visualization, provenance) with full API coverage, added backend comparison tables and real-world usage patterns - Renamed Modules tab from "API Reference" and group from "Context & Knowledge" to "Context & Intelligence" in docs.json - Fixed logo: copied "Semantica Logo.png" to web-safe semantica-logo.png and updated all 4 references in docs.json - Improved core docs (index, modules, concepts, quickstart, installation, getting-started) with better fonts, bullet points, and complete module listings (mcp_server, evals, core, utils previously missing) - Rewrote community pages (community, community-projects, contributing-guide, use-cases, architecture, faq, learning-more, glossary) with heading hierarchy fixes, expanded definitions, and better structure - Fixed markdown linter warnings: MD036 bold-as-heading, MD001 heading skips, MD040 missing code fence language, MD032 blank lines around lists

Contributions of all kinds are welcome — code, documentation, tests, and community support. Every contribution is recognized in release notes and the GitHub contributors list.
|
|
|
|

```bash
|
|
# Fork the repo on GitHub, then:

|
|
cd semantica
|
|
pip install -e ".[dev]"
|
|
pytest
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
New to the project? Start with [`good-first-issue`](https://github.com/semantica-agi/semantica/labels/good-first-issue) labeled tickets — they're scoped to be completable in a few hours without deep codebase knowledge.
|
|
|
|
## Ways to Contribute

|
|
|
### Code
|
|
|
|
- Fix bugs and resolve open issues
|
|
- Implement new features or integrations
|
|
- Optimize performance or refactor existing modules
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Testing
|
|
|
|
- Add test coverage for untested modules or edge cases
|
|
- Reproduce and confirm reported bugs with a minimal repro
|
|

|
## Development Setup
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/your-username/semantica.git
|
|
cd semantica
|
|
pip install -e ".[dev]"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Code style tools:**
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pytest # full test suite
|
|
black semantica/ tests/ # auto-format
|
|
isort semantica/ tests/ # sort imports
|
|
flake8 semantica/ # lint
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Style conventions: **Black** for formatting, **isort** for imports, **flake8** for linting. All three run in CI.
|
|
|
|
## Reporting Issues

|
|
|
**Bug reports** should include:
|
|
|
|

|
- Your environment: Python version, OS, Semantica version (`python -c "import semantica; print(semantica.__version__)"`)
|
|
|

**Feature requests** should include:
|
|
|
|
- Your concrete use case
|
|
- What you'd like Semantica to do
|
