<p>Home Assistant is built from the ground up to be easily-extensible by other developers using components. It uses <a href="https://www.python.org/">Python 3</a> for the backend and <a href="https://www.polymer-project.org/">Polymer (Webcomponents)</a> for the frontend.</p>

<h3><a class="title-link" name="starting-development" href="#starting-development"></a> Starting development</h3>
<p>You will need to set up a development environment if you want to start developing a new feature or component for Home Assistant. Please follow these steps to perform it. Visit the <a href="https://github.com/balloob/home-assistant">the Home Assistant repository</a> first and click fork in the top right.</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>$ git clone https://github.com/YOUR_GIT_USERNAME/home-assistant.git
$ cd home-assistant
$ git remote add upstream https://github.com/balloob/home-assistant.git
$ script/setup
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>We suggest that you setup a <a href="https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/venv.html">virtual environment</a> aka <code>venv</code> before running the setup script.</p>
<p>After following these steps, running <code>hass</code> will invoke your local installation.</p>
<h3><a class="title-link" name="submitting-improvements" href="#submitting-improvements"></a> Submitting improvements</h3>
<p>Improvements to Home Assistant should be submitted one feature at a time using Github pull requests.</p>
<ol>
<li>From your fork, create a new branch to hold your changes<br />
<code>git checkout -b some-feature</code></li>
<li>Make the changes you want</li>
<li>Test your changes and check for style violations<br />
<code>tox</code></li>
<li>Commit the changes<br />
<code>git add .</code><br />
<code>git commit -m "Added some-feature"</code></li>
<li>Push your commited changes back to your fork on GitHub<br />
<code>git push origin HEAD</code></li>
<li>Follow <a href="https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request/">these steps</a> to create your pull request.</li>
</ol>
<p>Note that the above requires <code>tox</code> to be installed. If you dont have it, do this:</p>
<div class="highlighter-coderay"><div class="CodeRay">
<div class="code"><pre>$ pip3 install tox
</pre></div>
