-### Building Debug Version
+You might want to contribute to Chroma for a variety of reasons. I usually will
+not judge, however, there are some conventions I expect you to adhere to. Mainly
+I would like for you to follow the project's **code style**:
+
+- C11 standard (I really wished for C99)
+- 2-space indentation (use `make format`)
+- No tabs (except for the Makefile, obviously)
+- Function names: `chroma_function_name`
+- Constants: `CHROMA_CONSTANT_NAME`
+
+Once your changes are done, fork this repository and create a feature branch.
+This is not a strict requirement but I'd rather not deal with rebase failures.
+Create your feature branch, make your changes, _test thoroughly_ and submit your
+pull request when you are done. With your pull request, I'd _really_ like a tiny
+snippet of text that explains your motive of changes. While I can infer what you
+are trying to do, I'd rather _know_ what was going on in your head.
+
+### Development
+
+A Nix shell is provided within the repository. You may use both `nix-shell` and
+`nix develop` to enter a development shell with all of the required dependencies
+for _dynamic linking_. Additionally, [Direnv](https://direnv.net) users may use
+`direnv allow` to use the shell provided by the repository.
+
+A few convenience commands are provided by the Makefile, which you may invoke at
+your own discretion.
