+
+## Submitting a pull request
+
+1. [Fork][fork] and clone the repository
+1. Configure and install the dependencies
+1. Make sure the tests pass on your machine: `./gradlew test`
+1. Create a new branch: `git checkout -b my-branch-name`
+1. Make your change, add tests, and make sure the tests and linter still pass
+1. Push to your fork and [submit a pull request][pr]

+
+Here are a few things you can do that will increase the likelihood of your pull request being accepted:
