 # Contributing to ng-redux
 
+## Developing ng-redux
+
+To run the project, simply `npm install`. Then, run tests via `npm run test` or build the entire project via `npm build`.
+
+## Commit convention
+
+ng-redux uses [`standard-version` convention](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/standard-version) which basically looks like this:
+
+```bash
+typeOfCommit(locationOfChanges): Commit message
+```
+
+Examples:
+
+```bash
+fix(lib): Fix ng-redux library issue
+feat(build): Build system test watch
+```
+
+And so on. The commits are then compiled into the changelog along with each release.
+

 ## Installation
 #### npm
+
 ```js

-**Warning!** ng-redux will stop being published to bower when version 4.0.0 hits. Bower recommends using yarn and webpack as an alternative for new projects.

-```js
-bower install --save ng-redux
+```json
+{
+  "dependencies": {
+    "ng-redux": "https://unpkg.com/ng-redux/umd/ng-redux.min.js"
+  }
