+# Contributing guidelines
+
+## Testing
+
+To ensure all code changes adhere to existing code quality standards, some
+automatic checks can be run locally.
+
+Ensure that the code builds without warnings and passes the tests:
+
+```sh
+stack test --pedantic
+```
+
+And also run the linter on your code:
+
+```sh
+stack build hlint
+stack exec hlint -- src tests
+```
+
+Build the documentation and check if you get any warnings:
+
+```sh
+stack haddock
+```
+
+Validate that literate Haskell (tutorials) files compile without any warnings:
+
+```sh
+stack ghc -- -Wall -fno-code docs/tutorial/*.lhs
+```
