+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
+orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+  address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
+representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
+address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
+further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting the project team at [[email protected]]([email protected]) or [[email protected]]([email protected]). All
+complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
+is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
+obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.

+
+- Reporting a bug
+- Discussing the current state of the code
+- Submitting a fix
+- Proposing new features
+
+## We Develop with Github
+We use github to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
+
+## We Use [Github Flow](https://guides.github.com/introduction/flow/index.html), So All Code Changes Happen Through Pull Requests
+Pull requests are the best way to propose changes to the codebase (we use. We actively welcome your pull requests:
+
+1. Fork the repo and create your branch from `master`.
+2. If you've added code that should be tested, add tests.
+3. If you've changed APIs, update the documentation.
+5. Be consistent with the codebase.
+6. Issue that pull request!
+
+## Any contributions you make will be under the MIT Software License

+## Report bugs using Github's [issues](https://github.com/lamarkaz/parasol/issues)
+We use GitHub issues to track public bugs. Report a bug by [opening a new issue](https://github.com/Lamarkaz/parasol/issues/new); it's that easy!
+
+## Write bug reports with detail, background, and sample code
+**Great Bug Reports** tend to have:
+
+- A quick summary and/or background
+- Steps to reproduce
+  - Be specific!
+  - Give sample code if you can.
+- What you expected would happen
+- What actually happens
+- Notes (possibly including why you think this might be happening, or stuff you tried that didn't work)
