Asked By CuriousCoder42 On

I'm curious about how various open source projects manage code style when it comes to contributions. Do they typically accept or reject submissions that don't align with the existing code style? Are there common style guides that contributors are expected to follow? Additionally, when a new style guide is introduced, how is existing code handled? Is the whole project reformatted to match the new style?

If a project lacks automated linting, I wouldn’t consider it worth contributing to. For other considerations, just open a PR and you'll get feedback on how to proceed.
