+# Contributing to Code Editor
+
+We love your input! We want to make contributing to Code Editor as easy and transparent as possible, whether it's:
+
+- Reporting a bug
+- Discussing the current state of the code
+- Submitting a fix
+- Proposing new features
+- Becoming a maintainer
+
+## Development Process
+
+We use GitHub to host code, to track issues and feature requests, as well as accept pull requests.
+
+1. Fork the repository
+2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b feature/amazing-feature`)
+3. Commit your changes (`git commit -m 'Add some amazing feature'`)
+4. Push to the branch (`git push origin feature/amazing-feature`)
+5. Open a Pull Request
+
+## Pull Requests
+
+1. Update the README.md with details of changes if applicable
+2. Update the documentation with details of changes if applicable
+3. The PR should work for Python 3.6 and above
+4. Ensure all tests pass before submitting the PR
+
+## Code Style
+
+We use:
+- Black for code formatting
+- isort for import sorting
+- flake8 for linting
+
+Please run these tools before submitting a PR:
+
+```bash
+black .
+isort .
+flake8
+```
+
+Or set up pre-commit hooks:
+
+```bash
