+# Contributing
+
+This file will guide you through the process of getting to project up and running, in case you want to provide coding contributions.
+
+You will also see how to ensure the code fulfills the expected code checks, and how to create a pull request.
+
+## System dependencies
+
+The project can be run inside a docker container through provided docker-compose configuration.
+
+Because of this, the only actual dependencies are [docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
+
+## Setting up the project
+
+The first thing you need to do is fork the repository, and clone it in your local machine.
+
+Then you will have to follow these steps:
+
+* Copy the file `docker-compose.override.yml.dist` by also removing the `dist` extension.
+* Start-up the project by running `docker-compose up`.
+
+Once this is finished, you will have the project exposed in port `3000` (http://localhost:3000).
+
+## Project structure
+
+This project is a [react](https://reactjs.org/) & [redux](https://redux.js.org/) application, built with [typescript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/), which is distributed as a 100% client-side progressive web application.
+
+This is the basic project structure:
+
+```
+shlink-web-client
+├── config
+├── public
+├── scripts
+├── src
+├── test
+├── package.json
+└── README.md
+```
+
+* `config`: It contains some configuration scripts, used during testing, linting and building of the project.
+* `public`: Will act as the application document root once built, and contains some static assets (favicons, images, etc).
+* `scripts`: It has some of the CLI scripts used to run tests or building.
+* `src`: Contains the main source code of the application, including both web components, SASS stylesheets and files with logic.
+* `test`: Contains the project tests.
+
+## Running code checks
+
+> Note: The `indocker` shell script is a helper used to run commands inside the docker container.
+
+* `./indocker npm run lint`: Checks coding styles are fulfilled, both in JS/TS files as well as in stylesheets.
+* `./indocker npm run lint:js`: Checks coding styles are fulfilled in JS/TS files.
+* `./indocker npm run lint:css`: Checks coding styles are fulfilled in stylesheets.
+* `./indocker npm run lint:js:fix`: Fixes coding styles in JS/TS files.
+* `./indocker npm run lint:css:fix`: Fixes coding styles in stylesheets.
+* `./indocker npm run test`: Runs unit tests with Jest.
+* `./indocker npm run mutate`: Runs mutation tests with StrykerJS (this command can be very slow).
+
+## Building the project
+
+The source code in this project cannot be run directly in a web browser, you need to build it first.
+
+* `./indocker npm run build`: Builds the project using a combination of `webpack`, `babel` and `tsc`, generating the final static files. The content is placed in the `build` folder, which is automatically created if it does not exist.
+* `./indocker npm run serve:build`: Serves the static files inside the `build` folder in port 5000 (http://localhost:5000). Useful to test the content built with previous command.
+
+## Pull request process
+
+In order to provide pull requests to this project, you should always start by creating a new branch, where you will make all desired changes.
+
+The base branch should always be `main`, and the target branch for the pull request should also be `main`.
+
+Before your branch can be merged, all the checks described in [Running code checks](#running-code-checks) have to be passing. You can verify that manually, or wait for the build to be run automatically after the pull request is created.
