# Contributing to Chibi-Scheme

Thanks for your interest!

Chibi-Scheme is fun and easy to hack.  If you want to contribute your
changes back upstream, there are just a few guidelines:

* Code must be released following the license in COPYING.
* New modules likely belong on snow-fort.org, not the core distribution.
* Chibi values small size over speed.
* Features should be built up in layers, not added directly to the core.
* Once you're ready to contribute, run `make init-dev` to install some
  local settings (currently only git submit hooks).
