+# CONTRIBUTING
+
 So you're looking to contribute to Dify - that's awesome, we can't wait to see what you do. As a startup with limited headcount and funding, we have grand ambitions to design the most intuitive workflow for building and managing LLM applications. Any help from the community counts, truly.
 
-We need to be nimble and ship fast given where we are, but we also want to make sure that contributors like you get as smooth an experience at contributing as possible. We've assembled this contribution guide for that purpose, aiming at getting you familiarized with the codebase & how we work with contributors, so you could quickly jump to the fun part.

 This guide, like Dify itself, is a constant work in progress. We highly appreciate your understanding if at times it lags behind the actual project, and welcome any feedback for us to improve.

 * If you're opening a new feature request, we'd like you to explain what the proposed feature achieves, and include as much context as possible. [@perzeusss](https://github.com/perzeuss) has made a solid [Feature Request Copilot](https://udify.app/chat/MK2kVSnw1gakVwMX) that helps you draft out your needs. Feel free to give it a try.

   A team member working in the related direction will be looped in. If all looks good, they will give the go-ahead for you to start coding. We ask that you hold off working on the feature until then, so none of your work goes to waste should we propose changes.
 
   Depending on whichever area the proposed feature falls under, you might talk to different team members. Here's rundown of the areas each our team members are working on at the moment:
