+# Contributing to xsimd
+
+First, thanks for being there! Welcome on board, we will try to make your
+contributing journey as good an experience as it can be.
+
+# Submitting patches
+
+Patches should be submitted through Github PR. We di put some effort to setup a
+decent Continuous Integration coverage, please try to make it green ;-)
+
+We use [clang-format](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html) to keep
+the coding style consistent, a ``.clang-format`` file is shipped within the
+source, feel free to use it!
+
+# Extending the API
+
+We are open to extending the API, as long as it has been discussed either in an
+Issue or a PR. The only constraint is to add testing for new functions, and make
+sure they work on all supported architectures, not only your favorite one!
+
+# Licensing
+
+We use a shared copyright model that enables all contributors to maintain the
+copyright on their contributions. Stated otherwise, there's no copyright
+assignment.
