-# Contributing to www.chromium.org
-
-In order to contribute to this repo you must have signed the
-[Google Contributor License Agreement](https://cla.developers.google.com/clas)
-and have an active account on
-[Chromium's Gerrit Host](https://chromium-review.googlesource.com).
-
-## Making edits to pages via the web
-
-The site contains a fairly rudimentary in-page editor. To edit a page,
-click on the "Edit this Page" button in the left nav bar. That will take
-you to [edit.chromium.org](https://edit.chromium.org/edit?repo=chromium/website/main)
-and open the page in the editor automatically.
-
-You can edit the Markdown text directly, and, once you're ready to upload
-the change, if you you click on the "Create Change" box in the bottom right
-corner of the page, that will create a Gerrit CL for review. A builder
-will automatically run to build out a copy of the site containing your
-changes so that you can preview them.
-
-Any current Chromium/ChromiumOS contributor (basically anyone with with
-try-job access or bug-editing privileges) can review CLs, but you also
-need OWNERS approval to land them.
-
-This functionality is limited to just editing the text of existing pages,
-and there's not yet any way to preview the change before you upload it
-for review.
-
-If you need to upload new images or other assets, or add new pages, or
-change multiple pages at once, or do anything else more complicated,
-keep reading ...
-
-## Making bigger changes using a local Git checkout
-
-*NOTE: If you have an existing Chromium or ChromiumOS checkout, you will
-hopefully soon have this repo DEPS'ed in in automatically.*
-
-1. Install depot_tools:
-
- ```bash
- $ git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/tools/depot_tools.git
- $ export PATH=/path/to/depot_tools:$PATH
- ```
-
-2. Check out the repo and its dependencies:
-
- ```bash
- $ git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/website
- $ cd website
- $ gclient sync
- ```
-
- or
-
- ```bash
- $ fetch website
- ```
-
-3. Make your changes! Check out [AUTHORING.md](AUTHORING.md) for guidelines.
-
-4. Build all of the static pages up-front to check for errors.
- The content will be built into `//build` by default.
-
- ```bash
- $ ./npmw build
- ```
-
- It should only take a few seconds to build out the website.
-
- (`npmw` is a simple wrapper around the version of `npm` that is bundled
- as part of this checkout.)
-
-5. Start a local web server to view the site. The server will (re-)generate
- the pages on the fly as needed if the input or conversion code changes.
- The content will be built into `//build`.
-
- ```bash
- $ ./npmw start
- ```
-
-6. Check in your changes and upload a CL to the Gerrit code review server.
-
- ```bash
- $ git commit -a -m 'whatever'
- $ git-cl upload
- ```
-
- If you are adding binary assets (images, etc.) to the site, you will
- need to upload them to the GCS bucket using `//scripts/upload-lobs.py`.
-
-7. Get one of the [//OWNERS](../OWNERS) to review your changes, and then
- submit the change via the commit queue.
-
- *NOTE:* If this is your first time contributing something to Chromium
- or ChromiumOS, please make sure you (or your company) has signed
- [Google's Contributor License Agreement](https://cla.developers.google.com/),
- as noted above, and also add yourself to the [//AUTHORS](../AUTHORS) file
- as part of your change.
