# Contributing
-Contributors are very welcome! **No contribution is too small and all contributions are valued.**
-
-Some suggestions to get started:
-
-- You can look at the [good first issue](https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/issues?q=is%3Aopen+label%3AE-easy+label%3AE-good-first-issue) label on the issue tracker.
-- Help with packaging on various distributions needed!
-- To use print debugging to the [Helix log file](https://github.com/helix-editor/helix/wiki/FAQ#access-the-log-file), you must:
- * Print using `log::info!`, `warn!`, or `error!`. (`log::info!("helix!")`)
- * Pass the appropriate verbosity level option for the desired log level. (`hx -v <file>` for info, more `v`s for higher severity inclusive)
-- If your preferred language is missing, integrating a tree-sitter grammar for
- it and defining syntax highlight queries for it is straight forward and
- doesn't require much knowledge of the internals.
-
-We provide an [architecture.md](./docs/architecture.md) that should give you
-a good overview of the internals.
+Contributing guidelines can be found [here](./docs/CONTRIBUTING.md).

+# Auto generated documentation
+
+Some parts of [the book][docs] are autogenerated from the code itself,
+like the list of `:commands` and supported languages. To generate these
+files, run
+
+```shell
+cargo xtask bookgen
+```
+
+inside the project. We use [xtask][xtask] as an ad-hoc task runner and
+thus do not require any dependencies other than `cargo` (You don't have
+to `cargo install` anything either).
