# Contributing to Better Auth
Thanks for taking the time to improve Better Auth! This is a small document to get you started.
Please refer to the [getting-started documentation](https://better-auth.com/docs/contribute/getting-started) specific to contributing for more information.
## Security Issues
If you see any security issue we prefer you to disclose it via an email (security@better-auth.com). All reports will be promptly addressed, and you'll be credited accordingly.
Learn more about our [security issues documentation](https://better-auth.com/docs/contribute/security-issues).
## A Few Guidelines to keep in mind
- Rather than extensive configurations, focus instead on providing opinionated, best-practice defaults.
- Try to make a consistent and predictable API across all supported frameworks
- Everything should be type-safe and embrace typescript magic when necessary.
## Development

6. create a branch.
7. build the project using `pnpm build`
8. run `pnpm -F docs dev` (to run the docs section)
