+## GUIDE TO CONTRIBUTING
+
+1. If you need help on making a pull request, follow this [guide](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-pull-requests/proposing-changes-to-your-work-with-pull-requests/about-pull-requests).
+
+2. To understand how to compile and test chisel3 from the source code, follow the instructions in [SETUP.md](https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel3/blob/master/SETUP.md).
+
+3. In order to contribute to chisel3, you'll need to sign the CLA agreement. You will be asked to sign it upon your first pull request.
+
+<!-- This ones helped me a lot -->
+
+4. To introduce yourself and get help, you can join the [gitter](https://gitter.im/freechipsproject/chisel3) forum. If you have any questions or concerns, you can get help there.
+
+5. You can peruse the [good-first-issues](https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel3/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A%22good+first+issue%22) for easy tasks to start with. Another easy thing to start with is doing your own pass of the [website](https://www.chisel-lang.org/chisel3/docs/introduction.html) looking for typos, pages missing their titles, etc. The sources for the website are [here](https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel3/tree/master/docs).
