Developer Support
Questions
Users can get expert help through the GitHub Discussions forum.
Reporting Bugs
It is often a good idea to ask about potential bugs in the GitHub Discussions Q&A Forum, since many “bugs” do not require a code change/fix — instead, the user may be unfamiliar with the model and/or may have misunderstood some component of the model or the instructions, which is causing the problem. If there is a genuine bug, developers are encouraged to search open issues to see if their bug has already been identified. If there is no open issue to address it, users can report the bug by filing a GitHub Issue.
Requesting Features
Users who want to request a feature enhancement or the addition of a new feature can post their suggestion under Enhancements in GitHub Discussions. These feature requests will be forwarded to the Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC) management team for prioritization and eventual addition to the UFS Weather Model.
