+# Contributing to qemu-web
+
+The QEMU project accepts code contributions to the website as patches sent to
+the the developer mailing list:
+
+https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/qemu-devel
+
+For further guidance on sending patches consult:
+
+https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch
+
+It is expected that contributors check the rendered website before submitting
+patches. This is possible by either running jekyll locally, or by using the
+GitLab CI and Pages infrastructure.
+
+Any branch that is pushed to a GitLab fork will result in a CI job being run
+visible at
+
+https://gitlab.com/yourusername/qemu-web/-/pipelines
+
+The rendered result can be then viewed at
+
+https://yourusername.gitlab.io/qemu-web
+
+Contributions submitted to the project must be in compliance with the
+Developer Certificate of Origin Version 1.1. This is documented at:
+
+https://developercertificate.org/
+
+To indicate compliance, each commit in a series must have a "Signed-off-by"
+tag with the submitter's name and email address. This can be added by passing
+the ``-s`` flag to ``git commit`` when creating the patches.
