Writing and maintaining GitHub issues

Standards for issues in tldraw/tldraw.

Title standards

  • Sentence case - Capitalize only the first word and proper nouns
  • No type prefixes - Use GitHub issue types, not
    Bug:
    ,
    Feature:
    ,
    [Bug]
    , etc.
  • Imperative mood for enhancements - "Add padding option" not "Adding padding option"
  • Descriptive for bugs - Describe the symptom: "Arrow bindings break with rotated shapes"
  • Specific - Readable without opening the issue body

Good titles

  • Arrow bindings break with rotated shapes
  • Add padding option to zoomToFit method
  • Pinch zoom resets selection on Safari

Bad titles

  • Bug: arrow bug
    (prefix, vague)
  • [Feature] Add new feature
    (prefix, vague)
  • Not working
    (vague)

Title cleanup transformations

  1. Remove prefixes:
    Bug: X
    X
  2. Fix capitalization:
    Add Padding Option
    Add padding option
  3. Use imperative:
    Adding feature X
    Add feature X
  4. Be specific:
    Problem
    [Describe the actual problem]
  5. Translate non-English titles to English
