+# Contributing to Rich
+
+This project welcomes contributions in the form of Pull Requests.
+For clear bug-fixes / typos etc. just submit a PR.
+For new features or if there is any doubt in how to fix a bug, you might want
+to open an issue prior to starting work, or email willmcgugan+rich@gmail.com
+to discuss it first.
+
+## Development Environment
+
+Rich uses [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/docs/) for packaging and
+dependency management. To start developing with Rich, install Poetry
+using the [recommended method](https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation) or run:
+
+```
+pip install poetry
+```
+
+Once Poetry is installed, install the dependencies with the following command:
+
+```
+poetry install
+```
+
+### Tests
+
+Run tests with the following command:
+
+```
+make test
+```
+
+Or if you don't have `make`, run the following:
+
+```
+pytest --cov-report term-missing --cov=rich tests/ -vv
+```
+
+New code should ideally have tests and not break existing tests.
+
+### Type Checking
+
+Rich uses type annotations throughout, and `mypy` to do the checking.
+Run the following to type check Rich:
+
+```
+make typecheck
+```
+
+Or if you don't have `make`:
+
+```
+mypy -p rich --ignore-missing-imports --warn-unreachable
+```
+
+Please add type annotations for all new code.
+
+### Code Formatting
+
+Rich uses [`black`](https://github.com/psf/black) for code formatting.
+I recommend setting up black in your editor to format on save.
+
+To run black from the command line, use `make format-check` to check your formatting,
+and use `make format` to format and write to the files.
