# 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)
