Hi @aiapps, and thanks in advance for your contribution!

If you haven’t already, please take a look at the [Library Guidelines](https://github.com/processing/processing4/wiki/Library-Guidelines) for details on requirements.

You might also find our [library template](https://github.com/processing/processing-library-template) useful. It includes everything you need to automatically build and deploy your release files and set up a documentation site without worrying about hosting.

When you’re ready to submit your library to the Contribution Manager, please use the [issue form](https://github.com/processing/processing-contributions/issues/new?assignees=&labels=new-contribution&projects=&template=1_new-library.yml) on the [processing-contributions](https://github.com/processing/processing-contributions) repo.

A maintainer will review your submission and may ask for additional info or changes if needed.
