-# Contributing Guidelines
-
-1. Build in public -- TorchStore should be OSS first, giving users a clear vision on where we want to go and how to help us get there.
-
-2. Build the Bicycle, not the super car -- Develop value iterively, instead of trying to ship everything at once.
-
-3. Work backwards from use cases, and leave tests!

 # Testing
 
 Pytest is used for testing. For an examples of how to run tests (and get logs), see:
 `TORCHSTORE_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG pytest -vs --log-cli-level=DEBUG tests/test_models.py::test_main`
