+### Branches

+Development happens on `4.x-current`
+
+### Pull Requests
+
+Pull Requests must never be based off your fork's main branch (in this case, `4.x-current`). Start your work in a new branch
+based on the upstream main one (e.g.: `cool-new-feature`, `fix-palakis-mistakes`, ...) and open a Pull Request once you feel ready to show your work.
+
+**If your Pull Request is not ready to merge yet, create it as a Draft Pull Request** (open the little arrow menu next to the "Create pull request" button, then select "Create draft pull request").
+
+### Code style & formatting
+
+Source code is indented with tabs, with spaces allowed for alignment.
+
+Regarding protocol changes: new and updated request types / events must always come with accompanying documentation comments (see existing protocol elements for examples).
+These are required to automatically generate the [protocol specification document](docs/generated/protocol.md).
+
+Among other recommendations: favor return-early code and avoid wrapping huge portions of code in conditionals. As an example, this:
+
+```cpp
+if (success) {
+    return req->SendOKResponse();
+} else {
+    return req->SendErrorResponse("something went wrong");
