Contributing a paclet

If you want to add a paclet to the repository, there is a simple three step process:

• Create a fork of the repository in your GitHub account:

• Clone this fork locally:

Alternately, instead of cloning locally, you can make changes via the GitHub web interface:

• Add your paclets to the ReviewQueue folder and submit a pull request:

You can submit your own paclet shingle by providing a Markdown notebook like those that are already in the content directory. If you don't provide a notebook one will be automatically generated from the metadata in your PacletInfo.m file. A good example of a well-written PacletInfo.m can be found here or here . The extra parameters the site generator uses will be placed into a "PacletServer" extension, e.g. add the extension:

 {
    "PacletServer",
    "Tags" -> { "tag1", "tag2", ...},
    "Categories" -> {"Category1", "Category2", ...},
    "Description" -> "Long-form description for the page",
    "License" -> "YourLicense"
  }

The idea behind this is described in detail in this blog post . You can find when the last build was by looking at the BuildInfo.m file.
