+## Coding guidelines
+
+This project uses [RuboCop](https://github.com/bbatsov/rubocop) to enforce standard Ruby coding guidelines. Currently we run RuboCop's lint rules only, which check for readability issues like indentation, ambiguity, and useless/unreachable code.
+
+* Test that your contributions pass with `rake lint`
+* The linter is also run as part of the full test suite with `rake`
+* Note the Travis build will fail and your PR cannot be merged if the linter finds errors
