+# Contributing to SIG Scalability
+
+Welcome to contributing guide to SIG Scalability.
+We are thrilled to have you here.
+
+## Before you begin
+
+Before you begin, please check out [Kubernetes Contributor Guide](http://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/guide) and [Contributor Cheat Sheet](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/guide/contributor-cheatsheet)
+
+## What SIG Scalability works on
+
+SIG Scalability has a few areas that you can contribute to.
+You can find list of [subprojects](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/sig-scalability/README.md#details-about-sig-scalability-sub-projects) that we are working on.
+Some of subprojects like `Kubernetes scalability bottlenecks detection` require both very deep and wide understanding of Kubernetes before making reasonable contributions.
+We recommend starting with contributions to `Scalability Test Frameworks` and `Scalability and Performance tests`.
+The easiest way to start contributing is to check issues with `good-first-issue` label [here][good-first-issues] or find issue with `help-wanted` label [here][help-wanted].
+Also, please check out documentation of [Clusterloader2], our [SLOs] and current [Scalability limits].
+If you are unsure in what area you want or should contribute, reach out to one of our [leads] on Slack.
