+## New contributor guide
+
+To get an overview of the project, read the [README](README.md) file. Here are some resources to help you get started with open source contributions:
+
+- [Finding ways to contribute to open source on GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/exploring-projects-on-github/finding-ways-to-contribute-to-open-source-on-github)
+- [Set up Git](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/set-up-git)
+- [GitHub flow](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/github-flow)
+- [Collaborating with pull requests](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-pull-requests)
+
+  
+### Pull Request
+
+When you're finished with the changes, create a pull request, also known as a PR.
+- Set your PR to go into the <b>dev branch</b>.
+- Don't forget to [link PR to issue](https://docs.github.com/en/issues/tracking-your-work-with-issues/linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue) if you are solving one.
+- Enable the checkbox to [allow maintainer edits](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork) so the branch can be updated for a merge.
+Once you submit your PR, a team member will review your proposal. We may ask questions or request additional information.
+- We may ask for changes to be made before a PR can be merged, either using [suggested changes](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/incorporating-feedback-in-your-pull-request) or pull request comments. You can apply suggested changes directly through the UI. You can make any other changes in your fork, then commit them to your branch.
+- As you update your PR and apply changes, mark each conversation as [resolved](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/commenting-on-a-pull-request#resolving-conversations).
+- If you run into any merge issues, checkout this [git tutorial](https://github.com/skills/resolve-merge-conflicts) to help you resolve merge conflicts and other issues.
