+## Olake Contributor Agreement
+
+To contribute to this project, we need you to sign the [**Contributor License Agreement (“CLA”)**][CLA] for the first commit you make. By agreeing to the [**CLA**][CLA]
+we can add you to list of approved contributors and review the changes proposed by you.
+
+## How you can contribute to Olake
+
+You can contribute to open-source Olake project. View our [**Issues Page**](https://github.com/datazip-inc/olake/issues) to see all open issues. If you encounter a bug or have an improvement suggestion, you can [**submit an issue**](https://github.com/datazip-inc/olake/issues/new) describing your proposed change.
+
+One way you can contribute to Olake is to create an Driver. An Driver is a connection between Olake and a Database from where you would like to fetch your event data. There are several reasons why you may want to build an Driver:
+
+- Custom Database Support: If your organization uses a unique or proprietary database not currently supported by Olake, creating a Driver allows seamless integration and data ingestion.
+- Optimized Performance: By building a custom Driver, you can tailor it to optimize for your specific use case, improving performance and reducing latency during data fetch operations
+- Advanced Features: Implement additional capabilities, such as support for custom queries, change data capture, or enhanced data transformation, to better suit your data workflows.
+
+For more information on the different ways in which you can contribute to Olake, you can chat with us on our [**Slack**](https://join.slack.com/t/getolake/shared_invite/zt-2usyz3i6r-8I8c9MtfcQUINQbR7vNtCQ) channel.
+
+
+## Submitting a pull request
+
+The type of change you make will dictate what repositories you will need to make pull requests for. You can reach out to us on our [**Slack**](https://join.slack.com/t/getolake/shared_invite/zt-2usyz3i6r-8I8c9MtfcQUINQbR7vNtCQ/) channel if you have any questions.
+
+For example to contribute a new driver, you need to create a pull request (PR). Follow these steps to ensure your PR is well-prepared:
+- Provide a clear and concise PR title.
+- Write a detailed and descriptive PR description.
+- Request a code review from the maintainers.
+
+## Committing
+
+We prefer squash or rebase commits so that all changes from a branch are committed to master as a single commit. All pull requests are squashed when merged, but rebasing prior to merge gives you better control over the commit message. Only signed commits are accepted for contribution.
+
+## Installing and setting up Olake
+
+To contribute to this project, you may need to install Olake on your machine. You can do so by following our [**docs**](https://datazip.io/olake/docs/olake/mongodb/how-to-start-contributing-on-olake) and set up Olake in no time.
+
+## Getting help
+
+For any questions, concerns, or queries, you can start by asking a question on our [**Slack**](https://join.slack.com/t/getolake/shared_invite/zt-2usyz3i6r-8I8c9MtfcQUINQbR7vNtCQ) channel.
