# VII. How to improve the compatibility addon

Project OAC uses Git as source control (SC) system for the development.

You can:

• download the complete source with Git
• improve the existing code
• add new class mappings

and upload your changes again for everyone to use and improve.

Coding standards

• Get a proper text editor like notepad++ or editpadpro.
• Do not mess up the code:
  • Preceding tabs - NO spaces! - before the code.
  • Correct number of preceding tabs.
  • NO tabs or spaces at the end of the line.
  • Spaces around an equal sign are standard.
  • One space after a colon, not before it.
  • Do not forget a semicolon to end definitions.
  • Use quotes for strings.
  • Correct placement of brackets.
• Use comments where they are meaningful.
• Use empty lines to separate code.
• Order lists alphabetically - use editor functions!
• Create a file header for addons according to the standard.
• Name addons according to the standard.
