Contributing

These rules apply to this repo. For branches, commits, pull requests, and labels, follow the shared workflow.

This repo is the published contract, so keep it small and stable. Versioning governs almost every change. Read it first.

Dependency rules

The abstractions assembly may reference only:

• the BCL
• the Microsoft.AspNetCore.App framework reference

Don't add references to Schuly.Application, Schuly.Domain, or Schuly.Infrastructure. Those types live in SchulyServer and aren't published.

Plugins never see the backend's entities or DbContext. They write school data through ISchoolData with the plain records in SchoolRecords.cs. Keep those records free of backend types, and add fields only in a backward-compatible way.

Pick a version bump

The PR label you choose drives the release version, so label deliberately. In addition to the shared labels, this repo uses breaking-change. See the table in versioning.
