 # Instructions for Contributing Code
 
+## Some things in general
+
+As Typescript is a big codebase, so some might run into issues while cloning this repo.  Hence, it is advisable to use
+`git clone --depth=1 <remote-url>` to clone it faster.
+
+Run `jake build` after every change. If you want to test it locally in some another project then use `node <path-to-local-typescript-folder>/built/local/tsc.js` in place of `tsc` in your project. For example, to run `tsc --watch`, use `node <path-to-local-typescript-folder>/TypeScript/built/local/tsc.js --watch`.
