Contributing to GeneGIS

Thank you for helping build the next generation of GIS.

Before you start

  1. Read the README and architecture overview
  2. GeneGIS is not a QGIS clone — please don't open PRs that recreate layer-tree desktop UX
  3. Major changes need an RFC in docs/rfcs/

Development setup

cargo build
cargo test
cargo run -p genegis-cli -- workflow run nagoya-density

Code organization

  • crates/genegis-core — project model, commands (stable-ish)
  • crates/genegis-workflow — GeoWorkflow IR
  • crates/genegis-render — wgpu rendering
  • Other crates — engines (Phase 0+ skeletons)

Pull request guidelines

  • Keep PRs focused; prefer small incremental changes
  • Include tests when adding logic to core crates
  • Record CRS, units, and provenance for any spatial operation
  • No secrets, credentials, or private dataset dumps

RFC process

  1. Copy docs/rfcs/0001-master-architecture.md as a template
  2. Number sequentially (0002-...)
  3. Discuss in issues before large implementations

Code of conduct

Be respectful. We compete with ideas, not people. QGIS and ArcGIS deserve credit as inspirations we learn from — not targets to attack.
