Contributing

If you like to contribute to the development of ChartTools, feel free to comment on an issue, submit a pull request or submit your own issues. To test your code, create a project named Debug and it will be automatically excluded from commits.

Documentation

The solution includes a Docs project that can be executed to build and deploy locally on port 8080. Remember to terminate the local server with Ctrl+C before closing as it can prevent later executions from using the port. If this occurs, run

netstat -aof | findstr :8080
taskkill /f /pid <PID>

where PID is the right-most ID in the output of netstat.
