Here are a few suggestions to make it easier for you to contribute!
### Describe your PR
Please add a description of your proposed code changes. It does not need to be an exhaustive essay, however a PR with no description or just a few words might not get accepted, simply because very basic information is missing.
A good description helps us to review and understand your proposed changes. For example, you could say a few words about
* what you try to achieve (new feature, fixing a bug, refactoring, security enhancements, etc.)
* how your code works (short technical summary - focus on important aspects that might not be obvious when reading the code)
* testing you performed, known limitations, open ends you possibly could not solve.
* any areas where you like to get help from an experienced maintainer (yes WLED has become big 😉)
### Target branch for pull requests
Please make all PRs against the `0_15` branch.

There is no hard character limit for a comment within a line,
though as a rule of thumb consider wrapping after 120 characters.
Inline comments are OK if they describe that line only and are not exceedingly wide.
