+# Contributing
+If you feel like you can improve the plugin any way, then you are
+more than welcome to contribute to PlotSquared. It would be highly
+appreciated if you made sure to test your code before committing it, 
+as it will save us a lot of time and effort.
+
+### Code Style
+
+If you are planning to commit any changes to the project,
+it would be highly appreciated if you were to follow the 
+project code style conventions. To make this easier we have
+provided settings that can be imported into your IDE.
+
+**Eclipse:**
+`Window > Preferences > Java > Code Style > Formatter`
+Press `Import` and select `...path/to/project/code_style.xml`
+
+**IntelliJ:**
+`File > Settings > Editor > Code Style`. Next to "Scheme" there is a cog wheel, press that and then
+`Import Scheme > IntelliJ IDEA Code Style XML` and then select `..path/to/project/code_style.xml`
