Want to contribute? Great! First, read this page (including the small print at the end).

### Before you contribute
4+
Before we can use your code, you must sign the
5+
[Google Individual Contributor License Agreement]
6+
(https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-individual)
7+
(CLA), which you can do online. The CLA is necessary mainly because you own the
8+
copyright to your changes, even after your contribution becomes part of our
9+
codebase, so we need your permission to use and distribute your code. We also
10+
need to be sure of various other things—for instance that you'll tell us if you
11+
know that your code infringes on other people's patents. You don't have to sign
12+
the CLA until after you've submitted your code for review and a member has
13+
approved it, but you must do it before we can put your code into our codebase.
14+
Before you start working on a larger contribution, you should get in touch with
15+
us first through the issue tracker with your idea so that we can help out and
16+
possibly guide you. Coordinating up front makes it much easier to avoid
17+
frustration later on.
18+
19+
### Code reviews
20+
All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We
21+
use Github pull requests for this purpose.
22+
23+
### The small print
24+
Contributions made by corporations are covered by a different agreement than
25+
the one above, the
26+
[Software Grant and Corporate Contributor License Agreement]
27+
(https://cla.developers.google.com/about/google-corporate).
