We follow the Jupyter Contribution Workflow and the IPython Contributing Guide.
In your environment pip install -e '.[test]' will be needed to be able to
run all of the tests.
NbClient needs some PRs to copy over documentation!
If you are going to release a version of nbclient you should also be capable
of testing it and building the docs.
Please follow the instructions in Testing and Documentation if you are unfamiliar with how to do so.
The rest of the release process can be found in these release instructions.
