+# Contributing
+
+
+Thank you for considering to contribute to this project. KYVE DLT is a light-weight
+tool for extracting data from the KYVE Datalake (https://www.kyve.network) and
+loading it to a supported destination.
+
+## Overview
+
+- The latest state of development is on `main`.
+- Releases can be found in `/release/*`.
+
+## Creating a Pull Request
+
+- Check out the latest state from main and always keep the PR in sync with main.
+- Use [conventional commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/#specification).
+- Only one feature per pull request.
+- Write an entry for the Changelog.
+
+## Coding Guidelines
+
+- Write readable and maintainable code. `Premature Optimization Is the Root of All Evil`.
+  Concentrate on clean interfaces first and only optimize for performance if it is needed.
+- The project is structured the following:
+  - `/cmd` is the entry point for the program. It contains all commands for the
+    CLI.
+  - `/destinations` handles the upload and insertion of data rows to a destination.
+  - `/loader` manages the entire process including the parallel processing.
+  - `/schema` contains the code for obtaining and extracting the data from the
+    bundle-format stored on KYVE. It also provides some information to the 
+    destination on how to cluster or partition the data.
+  - `/utils` contains common functionality used across all modules.
