Request a new feature#
Do you have an idea for a new feature or an improvement? Your suggestions are welcome. You can request a new feature by creating an issue in the PySTK issues board.
Test a new feature#
It is possible to test a new feature before it is officially released. To do so, you can install PySTK from the source code.

Answer questions#
Another great way to contribute is to help others by answering their questions. Maintain a positive and constructive attitude while answering questions. If you don’t know the answer, you can still help by pointing the person in the right direction.
