Not only is it very easy to report a bug, it also helps to improve Flowcode as a whole as a result. By reporting a bug you are helping to improve Flowcode by informing us of any problems and bugs which may occur.
If Flowcode crashes, a popup will appear asking If you would like to upload the crash report and help improve Flowocde.
Although it is easy to report a bug, make sure that you know it is a bug and check that your program is correct, it is also a good idea to look through the forums if anyone else is having the same bug or problem and see if there is a fix for this.
