+# Contributing to MediaManager
+
+First off, thank you for considering contributing to MediaManager.
+
+## Why
+
+Following this guide helps me merge your PRs faster, prevents unnecessary back-and-forth and wasted effort.
+
+## How to suggest a feature or enhancement
+
+Open an issue which describes the feature you would like to
+see, why you need it, and how it should work.
+There we can discuss its scope and implementation.
+
+## How to contribute
+
+Generally, if you have any questions or need help on the implementation side of MediaManager,
+just ask in the issue, or in a draft PR.
+
+Also, see the contribution guide in the docs for information on how to setup the dev environment:
+https://maxdorninger.github.io/MediaManager/developer-guide.html
+
+### For something that is a one or two line fix:
+
+Make the change, and open a PR with a short description of what you changed and why.
+
+### For something that is bigger than a one or two line fix:
+
+Explain why you are making the change.
+Be sure to give a rough overview on how your implementation works, and maybe any design decisions you made.
+Also include any relevant limitations or trade-offs you made.
+
+It's best to also open an issue first to discuss larger changes before you start working on them.
