## Contributing to Kitura

All improvements to Kitura are very welcome! Here's how to get started with developing Kitura itself.

1. Clone this repository.

  `$ git clone https://github.com/Kitura/Kitura`

2. Build and run tests.

  `$ swift test`

You can find more info on contributing to Kitura in our [contributing guidelines](https://github.com/Kitura/Kitura/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md).

## Notes

* Swift-NIO is now the default network engine via the Kitura-NIO package.  If for some reason you require the old Kitura-net package, you can still enable it by setting an environment variable `KITURA_NIO=0` during build.

* Most Kitura packages have been updated to require at least Swift 5.2 in order to maintain backward compatibility.
