# Contributing to PIE

> [!IMPORTANT]
> The TL;DR version of this is please either [open an issue](https://github.com/php/pie/issues) if you think you have
> found a bug, or [create a discussion](https://github.com/php/pie/discussions) if you have an idea for a new feature,
> **BEFORE** starting work on any code changes. Submitting a pull request without checking first may be duplicating
> work that is already in progress!

Please see the [PIE Maintainers Handbook](docs/pie-maintainers-handbook.md) for our full contributing guide and
documentation targeting contributors who want to work on PIE itself.
