Setting up your project for healthy contributions
Repository maintainers can set contributing guidelines to help collaborators make meaningful, useful contributions to a project.
Adding a code of conduct to your project
Adopt a code of conduct to define community standards, signal a welcoming and inclusive project, and outline procedures for handling abuse.
Setting guidelines for repository contributors
You can create guidelines to communicate how people should contribute to your project.
Adding a license to a repository
You can include an open source license in your repository to make it easier for other people to contribute.
Adding support resources to your project
You can create a SUPPORT file to let people know about ways to get help with your project.
Creating a default community health file
You can create default community health files, such as CONTRIBUTING and CODE_OF_CONDUCT. Default files will be used for any repository owned by the account that does not contain its own file of that type.
