Advent of Pull Requests Best Practice - Day 8

Following up from yesterday's post about setting up a PR template, today I'm diving into what your template should look like. Think of it as your project's customizable toolkit. Here's a quick guide on what to include:

  • Objective: Keep it short and sweet. What's this PR aiming to do?
  • Background/Context: Any key info or related links that give some backstory.
  • Implementation Details: The nitty-gritty of your approach and any big tech decisions you’ve made.
  • Testing Performed: Outline the tests you ran to make sure everything's working as it should.
  • Screenshots/Videos: Super helpful for UI changes, so everyone can see what's new.
  • Special Instructions for Reviewers: Point out areas you want your reviewers to focus on or any tricky bits.

Remember, a solid PR template like this can really streamline your review process, reduce unnecessary back-and-forth, and ensure everyone's on the same page. It's all about keeping your PRs consistent and thorough.
