| # How to contribute |
| |
| We definitely welcome feedback and contribution to Google APIs! Here |
| is some guideline and information about how to do so. |
| |
| ## Legal requirements |
| |
| In order to protect both you and ourselves, you will need to sign the |
| [Contributor License Agreement](https://cla.developers.google.com/clas). |
| |
| ## Technical requirements |
| |
| You will need several tools to work with this repository. At minimum, |
| you need both [Protocol Buffers](https://github.com/google/protobuf) |
| and [gRPC](https://github.com/grpc) in order to compile this |
| repository and generate client library source code in various |
| programming languages. |
| |
| To compile the generated code into usable client libraries, you will |
| need to use appropriate development environments and setup proper |
| build configurations. |
| |
| ## Additional note |
| |
| Currently, the root's Makefile only lets you generate source code for |
| the client library in the programming languages supported by |
| [gRPC](https://github.com/grpc). It does not generate the ready-to-use |
| client libraries yet. |
