For questions and community discussion, please drop them in the Light Table Google group. Also check out #lighttable in Freenode IRC.
When filing a bug on GitHub, please help us help you by including the following:
- Steps to reproduce the bug.
- Your operating system, LT and relevant plugin versions.
- Relevant configuration in your user.keymap and user.behaviors.
Note: The issue tracker is mainly for bugs. Questions should be asked on the Light Table Google group.
If a feature is specific to a library, language or is something that is normally a plugin in other editors, please add it to the wishlist. For other features, feel free to discuss in an issue. Be aware that Light Table has a plugin system that has the same degree of power that any core code does. This means that as a user, you usually have the ability to add any feature you desire without waiting on Light Table to implement it! Having such a powerful plugin system allows us to keep a small, well maintained Light Table core while encouraging a large ecosystem of plugins.
