+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
+community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
+identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
+nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
+and orientation.
+
+We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
+diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
+community include:
+
+* Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
+* Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
+* Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
+* Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
+  and learning from the experience
+* Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
+  overall community
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
+  advances of any kind
+* Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
+  address, without their explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Enforcement Responsibilities
+
+Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
+acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
+or harmful.
+
+Community leaders 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, and will communicate reasons for moderation
+decisions when appropriate.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
+an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
+posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement using
+[deepsearch-core@zurich.ibm.com](mailto:deepsearch-core@zurich.ibm.com).
+
+All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
+
+All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
+reporter of any incident.
+
+## Enforcement Guidelines
+
+Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
+the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
+
+### 1. Correction
+
+**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
+unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
+
+**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
+clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
+behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
+
+### 2. Warning
+
+**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
+of actions.
+
+**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
+interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
+those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
+includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
+like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
+permanent ban.
+
+### 3. Temporary Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
+sustained inappropriate behavior.
+
+**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
+communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
+private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
+with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
+Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
+
+### 4. Permanent Ban
+
+**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
+standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior,  harassment of an
+individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
+
+**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
+the community.

+## Contributing In General
+Our project welcomes external contributions. If you have an itch, please feel
+free to scratch it.
+
+To contribute code or documentation, please submit a [pull request](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/pulls).
+
+A good way to familiarize yourself with the codebase and contribution process is
+to look for and tackle low-hanging fruit in the [issue tracker](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/issues).
+Before embarking on a more ambitious contribution, please quickly [get in touch](#communication) with us.
+
+For general questions or support requests, please refer to the [discussion section](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/discussions).
+
+**Note: We appreciate your effort, and want to avoid a situation where a contribution
+requires extensive rework (by you or by us), sits in backlog for a long time, or
+cannot be accepted at all!**
+
+### Proposing new features
+
+If you would like to implement a new feature, please [raise an issue](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/issues)
+before sending a pull request so the feature can be discussed. This is to avoid
+you wasting your valuable time working on a feature that the project developers
+are not interested in accepting into the code base.
+
+### Fixing bugs
+
+If you would like to fix a bug, please [raise an issue](https://github.com/DS4SD/docling/issues) before sending a
+pull request so it can be tracked.
+
+### Merge approval
+
+The project maintainers use LGTM (Looks Good To Me) in comments on the code
+review to indicate acceptance. A change requires LGTMs from two of the
+maintainers of each component affected.
+
+For a list of the maintainers, see the [MAINTAINERS.md](MAINTAINERS.md) page.
+
+
+## Legal
+
+Each source file must include a license header for the MIT
+Software. Using the SPDX format is the simplest approach.
+e.g.
+
+```
+/*
+Copyright IBM Inc. All rights reserved.
+
+SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT
+*/
+```
+
+We have tried to make it as easy as possible to make contributions. This
+applies to how we handle the legal aspects of contribution. We use the
+same approach - the [Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1 (DCO)](https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric/blob/master/docs/source/DCO1.1.txt) - that the Linux® Kernel [community](https://elinux.org/Developer_Certificate_Of_Origin)
+uses to manage code contributions.
+
+We simply ask that when submitting a patch for review, the developer
+must include a sign-off statement in the commit message.
+
+Here is an example Signed-off-by line, which indicates that the
+submitter accepts the DCO:
+
+```
+Signed-off-by: John Doe <john.doe@example.com>
+```
+
+You can include this automatically when you commit a change to your
+local git repository using the following command:
+
+```
+git commit -s
+```
+

+
+
+## Developing
+
+### Usage of Poetry
+
+We use Poetry to manage dependencies.
+
+
+#### Install
+
+To install, see the documentation here: https://python-poetry.org/docs/master/#installing-with-the-official-installer
+
+1. Install the Poetry globally in your machine
+    ```bash
+    curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 -
+    ```
+    The installation script will print the installation bin folder `POETRY_BIN` which you need in the next steps.
+
+2. Make sure Poetry is in your `$PATH`
+    - for `zsh`
+        ```sh
+        echo 'export PATH="POETRY_BIN:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
+        ```
+    - for `bash`
+        ```sh
+        echo 'export PATH="POETRY_BIN:$PATH"' >> ~/.bashrc
+        ```
+
+3. The official guidelines linked above include useful details on the configuration of autocomplete for most shell environments, e.g. Bash and Zsh.
+
+
+#### Create a Virtual Environment and Install Dependencies
+
+To activate the Virtual Environment, run:
+
+```bash
+poetry shell
+```
+
+To spawn a shell with the Virtual Environment activated. If the Virtual Environment doesn't exist, Poetry will create one for you. Then, to install dependencies, run:
+
+```bash
+poetry install
+```
+
+**(Advanced) Use a Specific Python Version**
+
+If for whatever reason you need to work in a specific (older) version of Python, run:
+
+```bash
+poetry env use $(which python3.8)
+```
+
+This creates a Virtual Environment with Python 3.8. For other versions, replace `$(which python3.8)` by the path to the interpreter (e.g., `/usr/bin/python3.8`) or use `$(which pythonX.Y)`.
+
+
+#### Add a new dependency
+
+```bash
+poetry add NAME
+```
+
+## Coding style guidelines
+
+We use the following tools to enforce code style:
+
+- iSort, to sort imports
+- Black, to format code
+
+
+We run a series of checks on the code base on every commit, using `pre-commit`. To install the hooks, run:
+
+```bash
+pre-commit install
+```
+
+To run the checks on-demand, run:
+
+```
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
+
+Note: Checks like `Black` and `isort` will "fail" if they modify files. This is because `pre-commit` doesn't like to see files modified by their Hooks. In these cases, `git add` the modified files and `git commit` again.
+
+
+
+## Documentation
+
+We use [MkDocs](https://www.mkdocs.org/) to write documentation.
+
+To run the documentation server, do:
+
+```bash
+mkdocs serve
+```
+
+The server will be available on [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000).
+
+### Pushing Documentation to GitHub pages
+
+Run the following:
+
+```bash
+mkdocs gh-deploy
+```
