+## How to contribute
+
+1. Fork repo and create a new topic branch
+2. Make changes
+3. Ensure it compiles and passes tests using
+
+```bash
+cargo build
+cargo test
+```
+
+4. Auto format the code using `rustfmt` or a tool that integrates it (such as
+   `rust-analyzer` or some IDE).
+5. Make small atomic compilable working commits. Do NOT use "Conventional
+   Commits" for the commit title. Instead just directly write what was changed
+without any prefixes. Write it in the imperative tense and use the
+["50/72" rule](https://stackoverflow.com/a/11993051)
+6. Push commits to the created topic branch in your repo.
+7. Open a PR, wait for review.
+
+## How to create a new Action
+
+Use the [telegram action](../src/actions/telegram.rs) as a template. You need to
+implement the `Action` trait for your action and add the necessary hooks in
+[actions/mod.rs](../src/actions/mod.rs).
