# Contributing to Font Awesome Pro
Looking to contribute something to Font Awesome Pro? **Here's how you can help.**
## Reporting Issues & Submitting Ideas/Requests
Found a problem with Font Awesome Pro? Feel free to submit an issue on the GitHub project. But please keep the following in mind:
## Quick start
1. Please be nice. Font Awesome is a happy place.
2. Please [search](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome-Pro/search?type=Issues) to see if your issue was already reported. If it was, join in on the conversation or upvote that issue.
3. Before opening any issue, please read the generic [issue guidelines](https://github.com/necolas/issue-guidelines), by Nicolas Gallagher.
4. After doing everything above, feel free to [submit an issue](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome-Pro/issues/new).
We only accept issues that are icon requests, bug reports, or feature requests.
Bugs must be isolated and reproducible problems that we can fix within the Font
Awesome core. Please do not report security issues in public. Please email hello@fontawesome.com.
### Icon Requests + Suggestions
New icon design mostly starts as requests by the [Font Awesome Pro community on GitHub](../../issues).
* [Request a new icon](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/new?title=Icon%20request:%20icon-name&template=icon-request.md)
* [Submit a bug report](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/new?template=bug-report.md)
* [Request a feature request](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome/issues/new?title=Feature%20request:%20&template=feature-request.md)
#### Requesting Individual Icons
**We are currently not accepting individual icon requests**. This may change in the future, but for now we're focused on Icon Categories. However, if you have a specific brand icon you would like added, you may request it in the [official brand icon request thread](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome-Pro/issues/232).
## Key branches
#### Requesting Icon Categories
1. Please [search](https://github.com/FortAwesome/Font-Awesome-Pro/labels/icon%20category%20request) to see if your icon category request already exists. If a request is found, please add a 👍 reaction to that one.
2. If you're adding a new request, please and thank you if you title your [new issue](../../issues/new?title=Category%20Request:%20) `Category Request: Category Name` (e.g., `Category Request: Desserts`).
3. Include a few examples of icons or subjects to be covered in the category. How do you plan on using it?
- `master` is the latest, deployed version
Please note: at the moment **we are not accepting external icon contributions**.
