Contribution question

Hi ECharts team,

I have a follow-up question to clarify the best way to handle large feature
requests.

Let's say there is an issue for a new feature that can be broken down into
smaller, independent sub-tasks (e.g., parts A, B, and C). To make progress
easier to track and pull requests easier to review, would it be appropriate
for me to create separate, smaller issues for each of these sub-tasks? My
plan would then be to submit a PR that resolves one of these new, more
focused issues. I wanted to check if this is the preferred workflow before
I create any new issues.Thank you again for your guidance!

Thank you for your interest in contributing to the ECharts project. I
believe whether to accept pull requests (PRs) for sub - functions depends
on specific circumstances. Generally, we may prioritize merging PRs for sub
- functions that can be used independently. However, we also need to
consider the potential impact on the API design of the complete
functionality in the future.

I suggest you discuss with us in more detail on the mailing list or in an
issue about the sub - function and the complete function you intend to
create. Then we can have further discussions. Thank you.

Thanks
