Dear Tadas,

that sounds like a fun project! I’m looking forward to ideas how the reports 
can be improved!

Almost all of our conventions are checked during the build. So if you activate 
Github actions für your fork you will see any violations. Here you find some 
initial pointers about the development setup: 
https://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/environment.html

Regarding pull requests I want to be honest: We’re very reluctant with adding 
new features, additional technologies or complexity. We barely have the 
capacity to maintain the existing codebase. Also we only add code to the 
codebase which is fully covered by automated tests.

Cheers,
-marc
