+# Contributing
+
+Thanks for your interest in contributing. Please read this before opening a PR.
+
+## What gets merged
+
+This is a focused, stable library. The bar for new features is high — complexity must be justified by broad utility. Most things that feel like features are better solved with a documentation example.
+
+PRs that get merged quickly:
+
+- Bug fixes with a clear reproduction
+- TypeScript or accessibility improvements
+- Documentation or example improvements
+
+PRs that get closed:
+
+- No linked issue or description
+- Adds niche features better handled in userland
+- Breaks existing API without strong justification
+- Fails CI (lint, typecheck, tests, build)
+
+## Before you open a PR
+
+1. **Open an issue first** for anything non-trivial. Alignment before code saves everyone time.
+2. **Keep the scope small.** One concern per PR.
+3. **Check CI passes** locally before pushing: `npm run lint && npm run typecheck && npm test && npm run build`
+
+## Development setup
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm test          # run tests
+npm run typecheck # check types
+npm run lint      # check lint
+npm run build     # build the library
+```
+
+## Code style
+
+- TypeScript, no `any`
+- Prettier + ESLint enforced — run `npm run format` if needed
+- No new dependencies without discussion
+
+## Questions
+
+Usage questions belong in [Discussions](https://github.com/jbetancur/react-data-table-component/discussions) or the [docs](https://reactdatatable.com), not issues or PRs.
