+# Contributing
+
+Contributions are welcome, and they are greatly appreciated! Every
+little bit helps, and credit will always be given.
+
+## Get Started!
+
+Ready to contribute? Here's how to set up `PyBeacon` for local development.
+You can contribute in many ways:
+
+1. Fork the `PyBeacon` repo on GitHub.
+2. Clone your fork locally:
+
+  ```shell
+  $ git clone git@github.com:your_name_here/PyBeacon.git
+  ```
+
+3. Install your local copy into a virtualenv. Assuming you have virtualenv installed, this is how you set up your fork for local development:
+
+  ```shell
+  $ cd PyBeacon/
+  $ virtualenv env
+  $ source env/bin/activate
+  $ python setup.py develop
+  $ pip install coveralls pytest pytest-cov
+  ```
+
+4. Create a branch for local development:
+
+  ```shell
+  $ git checkout -b name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
+  ```
+   Now you can make your changes locally.
+
+5. When you're done making changes, check that your changes pass the test:
+
+  ```shell
+  $ py.test
+  ```
+
+6. Commit your changes and push your branch to GitHub::
+
+  ```shell
+  $ git add .
+  $ git commit -m "Your detailed description of your changes."
+  $ git push origin name-of-your-bugfix-or-feature
+  ```
+
+7. Submit a pull request through the [GitHub website](https://github.com/nirmankarta/PyBeacon).
+
+## Types of Contributions
+

+* Detailed steps to reproduce the bug.
+
+### Fix Bugs
+
+Look through the [GitHub issues](https://github.com/nirmankarta/PyBeacon/issues) for bugs. Anything tagged with "bug"
+and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
+
+### Implement Features
+
+Look through the GitHub issues for features. Anything tagged with "enhancement"
+and "help wanted" is open to whoever wants to implement it.
+
+### Write Documentation
+
+PyBeacon could always use more documentation, whether as part of the
+official PyBeacon docs, in docstrings, or even on the web in blog posts,
+articles, and such.
+
+### Submit Feedback
+
+The best way to send feedback is to file an issue at https://github.com/nirmankarta/PyBeacon/issues.
+
+If you are proposing a feature:
+
+* Explain in detail how it would work.
+* Keep the scope as narrow as possible, to make it easier to implement.
+* Remember that this is a volunteer-driven project, and that contributions
+  are welcome :)
+
+## Pull Request Guidelines
+
+Before you submit a pull request, check that it meets these guidelines:
+
+1. The pull request should include tests.
+2. If the pull request adds functionality, the docs should be updated. Put
+   your new functionality into a function with a docstring, and add the
+   feature to the list in README.md.
+3. The pull request should work for Python 2.7+ and 3.3+ and later. Check
+   https://travis-ci.org/PyBeacon/PyBeacon/pull_requests
+   and make sure that the tests pass for all supported Python versions.
