+## Welcome!
+
+I'm glad you are thinking about contributing to neovim-flake! If you're unsure about anything, just ask -- or submit the issue or pull request anyway. The worst that can happen is you'll be politely asked to change something. Friendly contributions are always welcome.
+
+I encourage you to read this project's CONTRIBUTING policy (you are here), its [LICENSE](LICENSE.md), and its [README](README.md).
+
+If you have any questions regarding those, feel free to open an issue or [shoot me an email](mailto:me@notashelf.dev).
+
+## Contributing
+
+The contribution process is mostly documented in the [pull request template](.github/pull_request_template.md). You will find a checklist of items to complete before submitting a pull request. Please make sure you complete it before submitting a pull request. If you are unsure about any of the items, please ask.
+
+## Code of Conduct
+
+This project does not quite have a code of conduct yet. And to be honest, I'm not sure if I want one. I'm not expecting this project to be a hotbed of activity, but I do want to make sure that everyone who does contribute feels welcome and safe. As such, I will do my best to make sure that those who distrupt the project are dealt with swiftly and appropriately.
+
+If you feel that you are not being treated with respect, please contact me directly.
