 # Contributing
 
+DeepSpeed welcomes your contributions!
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+We use [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) to ensure that formatting is consistent across DeepSpeed.
+First, ensure that `pre-commit` is installed from either installing DeepSpeed or `pip install pre-commit`.
+Next, the pre-commit hooks must be installed once before commits can be made:
+```
+pre-commit install
+```
+Afterwards, our suite of formatting tests run automatically before each `git commit`. You can also
+run these manually:
+```
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
