+
+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
+and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
+  overall community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
+  advances of any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
+  address, without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
+comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
+not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement.
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
+of actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
+permanent ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior,  harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
+the community.

+# Contributing
+
+**Any contribution helps EMS-ESP get better for the entire community!**
+
+Everybody is welcome and invited to contribute to the EMS-ESP Project by:
+
+- providing Pull Requests (Features, Fixes, suggestions)
+- testing new released features and report issues on your EMS equipment
+- contributing to missing [documentation](https://docs.emsesp.org)
+
+This document describes rules that are in effect for this repository, meant for handling issues by contributors in the issue tracker and PRs.
+
+## Opening New Issues
+
+1. Opening an issue means that a problem exists in the code and should be addressed by the project contributors.
+2. When opening an issue, it is required to fill out the presented template. The requested information is important! If the template is ignored or insufficient info about the issue is provided, the issue may be closed.
+3. Questions of type "How do I..." or "Can you please help me with..." or "Can EMS-ESP do..." are better directed to the support channel on Discord.
+4. Issues about topics already handled in the documentation will be closed in a similar manner.
+5. Issues for unmerged PRs will be closed. If there is an issue with a PR, the explanation should be added to the PR itself.
+6. Issues with accompanied investigation that shows the root of the problem should be given priority.
+7. Duplicate issues will be closed.
+
+## Triaging of Issues/PR's
+
+1. Any contributor to the project can participate in the triaging process, if he/she chooses to do so.
+2. An issue that needs to be closed, either due to not complying with this policy, or for other reasons, should be closed by a contributor.
+3. Issues that are accepted should be marked with appropriate labels.
+4. Issues that could impact functionality for many users should be considered severe.
+5. Issues caused by the SDK or chip should not be marked severe, as there usually isn’t much to be done. Common sense should be applied when deciding. Such issues should be documented in the documentation, for reference by users.
+6. Issues with feature requests should be discussed for viability/desirability.
+7. Feature requests or changes that are meant to address a very specific/limited use case, especially if at the expense of increased code complexity, may be denied, or may be required to be redesigned, generalized, or simplified.
+8. Feature requests that are not accompanied by a PR:
+   - could be closed immediately (denied).
+   - could be closed after some predetermined period of time (left as candidate for somebody to pick up).
+9. In some cases, feedback may be requested from the issue reporter, either as additional info for clarification, additional testing, or other. If no feedback is provided, the issue may be closed by a contributor or after 40 days by the STALE bot.
+
+## Pull requests
+
+A Pull Request (PR) is the process where code modifications are managed in GitHub.
+
+The process is straight-forward.
+
+- Read [How to get faster PR reviews](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/guide/pull-requests.md#best-practices-for-faster-reviews) by Kubernetes (but skip step 0)
+- Fork the EMS-ESP Repository [git repository](https://github.com/emsesp/EMS-ESP32).
+- Write/Change the code in your Fork for a new feature, bug fix, new sensor, optimization, etc.
+- Ensure tests work.
+- Create a Pull Request against the [**dev**](https://github.com/emsesp/EMS-ESP32/tree/dev) branch of EMS-ESP.
+
+1. All pull requests must be done against the dev branch.
+2. Make sure code is formatting per the `.clang-format`.
+3. Make sure any new code is clearly commented explaining what the function/logic does.
+4. Only relevant files should be touched (Also beware if your editor has auto-formatting feature enabled).
+5. Only one feature/fix should be added per PR.
+6. PRs that don't compile (fail in CI Tests) or cause coding errors will not be merged. Please fix the issue. Same goes for PRs that are raised against older commit in dev - you might need to rebase and resolve conflicts.
+7. All pull requests should undergo peer review by at least one contributor other than the creator, excepts for the owner.
+8. All pull requests should consider updates to the documentation.
+9. Pull requests that address an outstanding issue, particularly an issue deemed to be severe, should be given priority.
+10. If a PR is accepted, then it should undergo review and updated based on the feedback provided, then merged.
+11. By submitting a PR, it is needed to use the provided PR template and check all boxes, performing the required tasks and accepting the CLA.
+12. Pull requests that don't meet the above will be denied and closed.
+
+## Semantic Commit Messages
+
+See how a minor change to your commit message style can make you a better programmer.
+
+Format: `<type>(<scope>): <subject>`
+
+`<scope>` is optional
+
+## Example
+
+```
+feat: add hat wobble
+^--^  ^------------^
+|     |
+|     +-> Summary in present tense.
+|
++-------> Type: chore, docs, feat, fix, refactor, style, or test.
+```
+
+More Examples:
+
+- `feat`: (new feature for the user, not a new feature for build script)
+- `fix`: (bug fix for the user, not a fix to a build script)
+- `docs`: (changes to the documentation)
+- `style`: (formatting, missing semi colons, etc; no production code change)
+- `refactor`: (refactoring production code, eg. renaming a variable)
+- `test`: (adding missing tests, refactoring tests; no production code change)
+- `chore`: (updating grunt tasks etc; no production code change)

+## Contributor License Agreement (CLA)
+
+```
+By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
+
+(a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I
+    have the right to submit it under the GPL-3.0 license; or
+
+(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
+    of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
+    license and I have the right under that license to submit that
+    work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
+    by me, under the GPL-3.0 license; or
+
+(c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
+    person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
+    it.
+
+(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
+    are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
+    personal information I submit with it) is maintained indefinitely
+    and may be redistributed consistent with this project or the open
+    source license(s) involved.
+```
+
+This Contributor License Agreement (CLA) was adopted on April 1st, 2019.
+
+The text of this license is available under the [Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/). It is based on the Linux [Developer Certificate Of Origin](http://elinux.org/Developer_Certificate_Of_Origin), but is modified to explicitly use the GPL-3.0 license and not mention sign-off (due to GitHub.com keeps an historial, with your user name, of PRs' commits and all editions on PR's comments).
+
+**Why a CLA ?**
+
+_"A Contributor Licence Agreement (CLA) is strongly recommended when accepting third party contributions to an open development project, such as an open source software project. In order to redistribute contributions, it is necessary to ensure that the project has the necessary rights to do so. A Contributor Licence Agreement is a lightweight agreement, signed by the copyright holder, that grants the necessary rights for the contribution to be redistributed as part of the project."_ [OSS Watch](http://oss-watch.ac.uk/resources/cla)
+
+A CLA is a legal document in which you state _you are entitled to contribute the code/documentation/translation to the project_ you’re contributing to and that _you are willing to have it used in distributions and derivative works_. This means that should there be any kind of legal issue in the future as to the origins and ownership of any particular piece of code, then that project has the necessary forms on file from the contributor(s) saying they were permitted to make this contribution.
+
+CLA is a safety because it also ensures that once you have provided a contribution, you cannot try to withdraw permission for its use at a later date. People can therefore use that software, confident that they will not be asked to stop using pieces of the code at a later date.
+
+A **license** grants "outbound" rights to the user of project.
+
+A **CLA** enables a contributor to grant "inbound" rights to a project.
+
+<Other>
+<A table should be maintained for relating maintainers and components. When triaging, this is essential to figure out if someone in particular should be consulted about specific changes.>
+<A stable release cadence should be established, e.g.: every month.>
