+## Getting started
+
+### Issues
+
+If you have a bug to report or feature to request, first
+[search to see if an issue already exists](https://docs.github.com/en/github/searching-for-information-on-github/searching-on-github/searching-issues-and-pull-requests#search-by-the-title-body-or-comments).
+If a related issue doesn't exist, please raise a new issue using the relevant
+[issue form](https://github.com/neo4j/neo4j-genai-python/issues/new/choose).
+
+If you're a Neo4j Enterprise customer, you can also reach out to [Customer Support](http://support.neo4j.com/).
+
+If you don't have a bug to report or feature request, but you need a hand with
+the library; community support is available via [Neo4j Online Community](https://community.neo4j.com/)
+and/or [Discord](https://discord.gg/neo4j).
+
+### Make changes
+
+1. Fork the respository.
+2. Install Node.js and Yarn. For more information, see [the development guide](./docs/contributing/DEVELOPING.md).
+3. Create a working branch from `dev` and start with your changes!
+
+### Pull request
+
+When you're finished with your changes, create a pull request, also known as a PR.
+
+* Ensure that you have [signed the CLA](https://neo4j.com/developer/contributing-code/#sign-cla).
+* Ensure that the base of your PR is set to `main`.
+* Fill out the template so that we can easily review your PR. The template helps
+reviewers understand your changes as well as the purpose of the pull request.
+* Don't forget to [link your PR to an issue](https://docs.github.com/en/issues/tracking-your-work-with-issues/linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue)
+if you are solving one.
+* Enable the checkbox to [allow maintainer edits](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork)
+so that maintainers can make any necessary tweaks and update your branch for merge.
+* Reviewers may ask for changes to be made before a PR can be merged, either using
+[suggested changes](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/reviewing-changes-in-pull-requests/incorporating-feedback-in-your-pull-request)
+or normal pull request comments. You can apply suggested changes directly through
+the UI, and any other changes can be made in your fork and committed to the PR branch.
+* As you update your PR and apply changes, mark each conversation as [resolved](https://docs.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/commenting-on-a-pull-request#resolving-conversations).
