+# Contribution to Apache NuttX
+
+Hi! Thank you for wanting to contribute to Apache NuttX.
+
+## Guidelines
+
+In order to help us review your contribution successfully
+it is very important you follow these guidelines:
+
+  * Use descriptive **commit messages** and, if the change
+    warrants further description, do add a separate paragraph
+    like so:
+
+        <first line (up to ~80 characters)>
+
+        <more paragraphs here>
+
+  * Be sure to **fill in** the pull-request template with
+    meaningful content (be very descriptive, take your time).
+    Do **not** remove these sections or ignore them.
+
+    * **Tip**: if you create a commit message as above, the
+      first line will be automatically used as PR title
+      and the rest added to the description. Use it as a
+      starting point to describe your PR.
+
+  * Your should follow [NuttX C Coding Standard](https://nuttx.apache.org/docs/latest/contributing/coding_style.html)
+  
+    * Your code will be automatically checked by GitHub
+      Continuous Integration (CI) system. If you see the
+      "check" step fails, it is possible that this happens
+      due to style errors.
+
+    * Note that we require you to solve this issues
+      and adapt all modified files even if you didn't
+      introduce the problem yourself (this way, every
+      contribution gets us closer to compliance)
