+# Contributing to this repository
+
+This file should give you a general direction where this repository is heading and how you can contribute.
+
+## Roadmap
+
+The idea is that version 4.0.0 should mark the feature-complete release of elm-ui-widgets. This essentially means that we can NOT allow having a major update for some small change. Issues marked as 4.0.0 should have an intermediate fix in 3.X.X. The idea would to let some version of 3.X.X. be feature-complete and to then go over the API one final time.
+
+Development is quite slow. If you need something, the fasted way is to start a new issue and help out. Any help is welcome.
+
+## How to contribute
+
+Always start with an issue, PRs that are not related to issues will be instantly rejected. 
+
+If you want to help out, just look through all the open issues and pick one you'd like to tackle.
