# Upstream first

For feature changes, updates, and bug investigation or fixes:

1. First inspect how upstream yabai designs and implements the relevant behavior,
including related changes and fixes.
2. Prefer reusing or adapting the upstream approach.
3. Write a custom implementation only when upstream cannot meet the requirements,
and briefly explain why.
