+# Contributing
+
+## How can I help?
+
+Fork the repository, make your change and submit a pull request. If you would
+like to discuss the changes you intend to make to clarify where or how they
+should be implemented, please don't hesitate to create a new issue. At a
+minimum, you may want to read the following documentation:
+
+- [Getting Started](/development/getting-started.md)
+- [Architecture](./architecture.md)
+
+Pull requests that are:
+
+- Small
+- [Well tested](./testing.md)
+- Decoupled
+
+Are much more likely to get reviewed and merged in a timely manner.
+
+## When changes impact multiple repositories
+
+While this can be tricky, we've tried to reduce how often this situation crops
+up this with our [recent switch to a monorepo][monorepo]. Our maintained
+extensions, ui components, internationalization library, and business logic can
+all be developed by simply running `yarn run dev` from the repository root.
+
+Testing the viewer with locally developed, unpublished package changes from a
+package outside of the monorepo is most common with extension development. Let's
+demonstrate how to accomplish this with two commonly forked extension
+dependencies:
+
+#### Other linkage notes
+
+We're still working out some of the kinks with local package development as
+there are a lot of factors that can influence the behavior of our development
+server and bundler. If you encounter issues not addressed here, please don't
+hesitate to reach out on GitHub.
+
+Sometimes you might encounter a situation where the linking doesn't work as
+expected. This might happen when there are multiple linked packages with the
+same name. You can [remove][unlink] the linked packages inside yarn and try
+again.
+
+## Any guidance on submitting changes?
+
+While we do appreciate code contributions, triaging and integrating contributed
+code changes can be very time consuming. Please consider the following tips when
+working on your pull requests:
+
+- Functionality is appropriate for the repository. Consider creating a GitHub
+  issue to discuss your suggested changes.
+- The scope of the pull request is not too large. Please consider separate pull
+  requests for each feature as big pull requests are very time consuming to
+  understand.
+
+We will provide feedback on your pull requests as soon as possible. Following
+the tips above will help ensure your changes are reviewed.
+
+<!-- ## Testing contribution pull requests
+
+OHIF uses [netlify](https://www.netlify.com/) so that pull requests are
+autogenerated and available for testing.
+
+For example, [this url][example-url] allows you to test [pull request 237, the
+request that created this FAQ entry,][pr-237] using data pulled from Amazon S3.
+
+Replacing the number 237 in the link below with your pull request number should
+let you test it as well and you can use this link for discussions on github
+without requiring reviewers to download and build your branch.
+
+```bash
+https://deploy-preview-237--ohif.netlify.com/viewer/?url=https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/ohif-viewer/sampleDICOM.json
+```
+
+If you have made a documentation change, a link like this will let you preview
+the gitbook generated by the pull request:
+
+```bash
+https://deploy-preview-237--ohif.netlify.com/contributing.html
+``` -->
