Code of conduct
A code of conduct establishes expectations for behavior within your project’s community, creating an inclusive space that minimizes conflicts and promotes constructive collaboration.
What to include:
- Purpose: State the reason for having a code of conduct and its importance for a positive community.
- Expected behavior: Clearly outline the standards of behavior expected from all participants.
- Unacceptable behavior: Specify actions and language that are not tolerated.
- Enforcement: Explain the consequences of violating the code of conduct and how incidents will be handled.
- Contact information: Provide contact details for reporting concerns or issues.
You can add a CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file at your repository’s root level. GitHub will automatically detect and display it in your community profile.
