+## Contributing guide
+This document serves as a checklist before contributing to this repository. It includes links to additional information if topics are unclear to you.
+
+This guide mainly focuses on the proper use of Git.
+
+### 1. Before opening an issue
+To report a bug/request please enter the issue in the right repository.
+
+Please check the following boxes before posting an issue:
+- [ ] `Make sure you are using the latest commit (major releases are Tagged, but corrections are available as new commits).`
+- [ ] `Make sure your issue is a question/feedback/suggestion RELATED TO the software provided in this repository.` Otherwise, it should be discussed on the [ST Community forum](https://community.st.com/s/).
+- [ ] `Make sure your issue is not already reported/fixed on GitHub or discussed in a previous issue.` Please refer to the tab issue for the list of issues and pull-requests. Do not forget to browse to the **closed** issues.
+
+### 2. Posting the issue
+When you have checked the previous boxes, you will find two templates (Bug Report or Other Issue) available in the **Issues** tab of the repository.
+
+### 3. Pull Requests
+STMicroelectronics is happy to receive contributions from the community, based on an initial Contributor License Agreement (CLA) procedure.
+
+* If you are an individual writing original source code and you are sure **you own the intellectual property**, then you need to sign an Individual CLA (https://cla.st.com).
+* If you work for a company that wants also to allow you to contribute with your work, your company needs to provide a Corporate CLA (https://cla.st.com) mentioning your GitHub account name.
+* If you are not sure that a CLA (Individual or Corporate) has been signed for your GitHub account, you can check here (https://cla.st.com).
+
+Please note that:
+* The Corporate CLA will always take precedence over the Individual CLA.
+* One CLA submission is sufficient for any project proposed by STMicroelectronics.
+
+#### How to proceed
+
+* We recommend to engage first a communication through an issue, in order to present your proposal and just to confirm that it corresponds to a STMicroelectronics domain or scope.
+* Then fork the project to your GitHub account to further develop your contribution. Please use the latest commit version.
+* Please submit one Pull Request for one new feature or proposal. This will facilitate the analysis and the final merge if accepted.

+# 1 - Introduction
+
+Sensor driver for LSM6DS3 sensor written in C programming language. This repository contains the sensor driver files (.h and .c) to be included, or linked directly as a git submodule, in your project. The driver is MISRA compliant and the documentation can be generated using the [Doxygen](http://www.doxygen.org/) tool.
+
+In order to `clone` the complete content of the repository folder, use the command:
+
+```
+git clone https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/LSM6DS3/
+```
+
+Some examples of driver usage can be found [here](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STMems_Standard_C_drivers).
+
+------
+
+
+
+# 2 - Integration details
+
+The driver is platform-independent, you only need to define two  functions for read and write transactions from the sensor hardware bus  (ie. SPI or I²C). **A few devices integrate an extra bit in the  communication protocol in order to enable multi read/write access, this  bit must be managed in the read and write functions defined by the user.** Please refer to the read and write implementation in the [reference examples](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STMems_Standard_C_drivers/tree/master/LSM6DS3_STdC/examples).
+
+
+
+### 2.a Source code integration
+
+- Include in your project the driver files of the sensor (.h and .c) 
+- Define in your code the read and write functions that use the I²C or SPI platform driver like the following:
+
+```
+/** Please note that is MANDATORY: return 0 -> no Error.**/
+int32_t platform_write(void *handle, uint8_t Reg, uint8_t *Bufp, uint16_t len)
+int32_t platform_read(void *handle, uint8_t Reg, uint8_t *Bufp, uint16_t len)
+```
+
+- Declare and initialize the structure of the device interface:
+
+```
+xxxxxxx_ctx_t dev_ctx; /** xxxxxxx is the used part number **/
+dev_ctx.write_reg = platform_write;
+dev_ctx.read_reg = platform_read;
+```
+
+- If needed by the platform read and write functions, initialize the handle parameter:
+
+```
+dev_ctx.handle = &platform_handle;
+```
+
+Some integration examples can be found [here](https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/STMems_Standard_C_drivers/tree/master/LSM6DS3_STdC/examples).
+
+### 2.b Required properties
+
+> - A standard C language compiler for the target MCU
+> - A C library for the target MCU and the desired interface (ie. SPI, I²C)
