Contributing Documentation

The Contribution Process

Documentation Formats
Explains the technical details of the reStructuredText format that is used to write the docs. Skip it if you are already familiar with this format.
Documentation Standards
Explains how to write docs and code examples to match the style and tone of the rest of the existing documentation.
License
Explains the details of the Creative Commons BY-SA 3.0 license used for the Symfony Documentation.
