+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
+education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race,
+religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+  advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+  address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
+representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
+address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
+further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting Dan Buch at dan@meatballhat.com. All complaints will be
+reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that is deemed necessary
+and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is obligated to maintain
+confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.  Further details of
+specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.
+
+## Attribution
+
+This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant][homepage], version 1.4,
+available at https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html

+## Contributing
+
+**NOTE**: the primary maintainer(s) may be found in
+[./MAINTAINERS.md](./MAINTAINERS.md).
+
+Feel free to put up a pull request to fix a bug or maybe add a feature. I will
+give it a code review and make sure that it does not break backwards
+compatibility. If I or any other collaborators agree that it is in line with
+the vision of the project, we will work with you to get the code into
+a mergeable state and merge it into the master branch.
+
+If you have contributed something significant to the project, we will most
+likely add you as a collaborator. As a collaborator you are given the ability
+to merge others pull requests. It is very important that new code does not
+break existing code, so be careful about what code you do choose to merge.
+
+If you feel like you have contributed to the project but have not yet been added
+as a collaborator, we probably forgot to add you :sweat_smile:.  Please open an
+issue!
