+# Contributing to Bash TUI Toolkit
+I love your input! I want to make contributing to this project as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:
+
+- Reporting a bug
+- Discussing the current state of the code
+- Submitting a fix
+- Proposing new features
+- Becoming a maintainer
+
+## I develop with Github
+I use github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
+
+## I Use [CircleCI](https://circleci.com/product/), So All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests
+Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (I use [CircleCI](https://circleci.com/product/)). I actively welcome your pull requests:
+
+1. Fork the repo and create your branch from `main`.
+2. If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
+3. If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
+4. Ensure the tests pass.
+5. Make sure your code and commit lints.
+6. Issue that pull request!
+
+## Any contributions you make will be under the Climate Strike License
+In short, when you submit code changes, your submissions are understood to be under the same [Apache 2.0](https://github.com/timo-reymann//blob/main/LICENSE) that covers the project. Feel free to contact the maintainers if that's a concern.
+
+## Report bugs using Github's issues
+I use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by opening a new issue, it's that easy!
+
+## Write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code
+
+**Great Bug Reports** tend to have:
+
+- A quick summary and/or background
+- Steps to reproduce
+    - Be specific!
+    - Give sample code if you can.
+- What you expected would happen
+- What actually happens
+- Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)
+
+People *love* thorough bug reports. I'm not even kidding.
+
+To make your life easier there is also a handy template available so feel free to use it.
+
+> ATTENTION: If you DONT provide steps to reproduce the ticket will be closed WITHOUT FURTHER NOTICE!
