+#   According to pypa/pipenv#598, it is recommended to include Pipfile.lock in version control.
+#   However, in case of collaboration, if having platform-specific dependencies or dependencies

+#   install all needed dependencies.
+#Pipfile.lock
+
+# poetry
+#   Similar to Pipfile.lock, it is generally recommended to include poetry.lock in version control.
+#   This is especially recommended for binary packages to ensure reproducibility, and is more
+#   commonly ignored for libraries.

+#poetry.lock
+
+# pdm
+#   Similar to Pipfile.lock, it is generally recommended to include pdm.lock in version control.
+#pdm.lock

+#   in version control.

+# Contributing to Embedding Bridge
+
+We love your input! We want to make contributing to Embedding Bridge as easy and transparent as possible.
+
+## Development Process
+
+1. Fork the repo and create your branch from `main`.
+2. Make your changes.
+3. If you've added code, add tests.
+4. Ensure the test suite passes.
+5. Make sure your code follows the style guidelines.
+6. Issue a pull request.
+
+## Code Style
+
+- Use 8-character indentation
+- Maximum line length of 80 characters
+- Clear and descriptive variable names
+- Functions should do one thing and do it well
+- Comprehensive error handling
+- Comments should explain WHY, not WHAT
+
+## Pull Request Process
+
+1. Update the README.md with details of changes if needed.
+2. Update the documentation if you're introducing new features.
+3. The PR will be merged once you have the sign-off of at least one maintainer.
