## Contributing to the Wiki
All contributions would be glorious. An out of date wiki is so much worse than the occasional misleading new contribution, so please **err on the side of sharing your knowledge**.
Wikis are best when they're living and evolving. As an async, remote team, let's create a wiki that reflects our commitment to this way of work! 🌍
👉 **[Read how to contribute right here](CONTRIBUTING.md)!**
tl:dr;
1. Be the change you want to see on the wiki ✨ Just **edit it directly** on Github ✏️
1. Got more of a **suggestion** than an immediate change? Open a **Pull Request** 🙋🏽
