## Have an issue?
Before opening an issue, try the following:
##### Consult the documentation
See if your issue can be resolved by information in the documentation.
TBD
##### Check for an existing issue
Take a look at the issues to see if a similar one has already been created. If
one exists, please add any additional information that might expedite
resolution.
#### Open an issue
If the documentation wasn't able to help resolve the issue and no issue already
exists, please open a new issue with the following in mind:
- Please make sure only to include one issue per report. If you encounter
multiple, unrelated issues, please report them as such.
- Be detailed. Provide backtraces and example code when possible. Provide
information about your environment. e.g., Ruby version, rails version, etc.
- Own your issue. Actively participate in the discussion and help drive the
issue to closure.
- If you resolve your own issue, please share the details on the issue and close
it out. Others might have the same issue and sharing solutions is helpful.
