# Contributing

## Branch Protection
- **`main` branch is protected** — direct pushes are disabled.
- All changes must go through **Merge Requests (MRs)**.
- MRs require approval from code owners before merging.

## CI/CD
- Deployment is automated via **Woodpecker CI**.
- Pipeline triggers on every push to `main` after merge.
- Configuration: `.woodpecker.yml`

## Workflow
1. Create a feature branch from `main`
2. Make changes and push (put web content in `/public`)
3. Open a Merge Request
4. Wait for CI checks + code owner review
5. Merge when approved

## Code Owners
See `.gitea/CODEOWNERS` for responsible maintainers.
