Prompted by the discussion in #6 (comment), and based on my own exploration of this repository in the course of various cleanup changes I've been making, here are some updates to the contribution documentation to clarify some ambiguous bits, add extra information, fix a some typos, and overall make this project slightly easier to contribute to.
This is an important step towards making the project ready for moving to an organization to be community-maintained, as it cements some practices and guidelines that were not yet fully fleshed out.
I'll leave this PR open for a few days in case there's any feedback. I'd be happy to hear others' opinions on whether the updated text is clear and useful enough. /cc @cassidyjames who started the discussion linked above, as well as @rugk and @CaKrome, who reacted in #2.
