+# Contributing
+
+Welcome to the home of the AEP Web SDK! We appreciate your interest in contributing and are excited to collaborate.
+
+The following guidelines will help ensure a smooth contribution process.
+
+Our guidelines vary depending on the type of contribution: New Feature, Enhancement, or Bug Fix.
+
+
+## Contributor license agreement
+
+All third-party contributions to this project must be accompanied by a signed contributor
+license agreement. This gives Adobe permission to redistribute your contributions
+as part of the project. [Sign our CLA](http://opensource.adobe.com/cla.html). You
+only need to submit an Adobe CLA one time, so if you have submitted one previously,
+you are good to go!
+
+
+## Bug Fix Process
+
+Submit bug fixes via pull requests, to be reviewed by the AEP Web SDK's Core team.
+
+1. Create a pull request.
+2. Describe the bug, and provide steps to reproduce it. (More details on the PR process below)
+
+
+## New Feature Process
+
+New feature contributions start with a Concept Approval (CA) / Proposal document.
+
+- Internal Contributors: Create a Wiki page and engage with the AEP Web SDK's Product team to discuss your proposal.
+- External Contributors: Create a GitHub issue detailing your feature and assign the ticket to https://github.com/jfkhoury.
+- No need for detailed architectural insights at this stage.
+
+
+#### Post Approval
+
+1. Add a thorough architecture and design proposal to a technical document.
+    - Seek assistance from the AEP Web SDK Engineering team for design input if necessary.
+    - This document will be shared with Adobe's documentation writers, so ensure it's detailed.
+2. Share your CA and technical documents with the AEP Web SDK engineering team for further discussion and approval.
+    - A work session will be scheduled for a kickoff discussion. (Joe to set up)
+3. Upon design approval, proceed with development. The technical document will be shared with the documentation team for public documentation preparation.
+
+
+## Pull Request Approval Process
+
+We strive to review all pull requests promptly and may suggest improvements or alternatives.
+
+Include in your pull request:
+
+
+- Break down your PR into manageable commits and add a descriptive PR title and thorough description, including screenshots if applicable.
+- Ensure code adheres to our formatting and usage standards (`npm run format` and `npm run lint`)
+- Testing:
+    - Detail your test cases comprehensively. PRs lacking tests will not be reviewed.
+    - Include unit and functional tests.
+    - Test your feature in the [Sandbox](https://github.com/adobe/alloy/wiki/Running-the-sandbox-locally-over-HTTPS-on-Mac-OS).
+- Make sure the PR merges cleanly with the latest main.
+- Obtain 3 approvals from the Core Web SDK team to have your PR approved.
+- If a consensus isn’t reached regarding any code concern, Joe will provide the final say.
+    - We encourage and enjoy open minded, deep discussions on this team. Try your best to propose a design that the whole team agrees with.
+
+
+## Ownership
+
+While contributors are not expected to maintain the feature post-contribution, for a smooth handover, we require:
+
+- Detailed technical documents explaining the feature and architecture.
+- Engage in discussions with the AEP Web SDK core team to ensure full understanding and approval of the design and code.
