## Contributing

  

We are a group of contributors with a goal to make software engineering and leadership behaviors visible, to make software better for everyone. 

You can create your principle by using the [Editor](https://principles.dev/editor/), reading the [how to write a principle](https://principles.dev/documentation/#how-to-write-a-principle_1) and, of course, the Contributing.md. Once done you can submit a pull request back to this repo.
