+# Code of Conduct
+
+Diversity and inclusion make our community strong. We encourage participation from the most varied and diverse backgrounds possible and want to be very clear about where we stand.
+
+Our goal is to maintain a safe, helpful and friendly community for everyone, regardless of experience, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other defining characteristic.
+
+This code and related procedures also apply to unacceptable behavior occurring outside the scope of community activities, in all community venues (online and in-person) as well as in all one-on-one communications, and anywhere such behavior has the potential to adversely affect the safety and well-being of community members.
