For better experience for new contributors we should improve our "how to get started" documentation inside the repository. (Basically the files README.md and CONTRIBUTING.md.)
Cool would be that a new developer can find all the information she needs on how to set up her local environment, run tests and start to contribute.
It has been done already for sentry-python so we can steal a lot of stuff from over there.
This is how those files should look like (If the section is not applicable to the SDK, we can ommit it.)
README.md
Sentry header (if not already there copy from sentry-python)
badges of coverage etc for different versions/integrations (if available)]
