 🪶 **Lightweight:** Graph-based recomputation eliminates heavy embedding storage, while smart graph pruning and CSR format minimize graph storage overhead. Always less storage, less memory usage!
 
+📦 **Portable:** Transfer your entire knowledge base between devices (even with others) with minimal cost - your personal AI memory travels with you.
+
 📈 **Scalability:** Handle messy personal data that would crash traditional vector DBs, easily managing your growing personalized data and agent generated memory!
 
 ✨ **No Accuracy Loss:** Maintain the same search quality as heavyweight solutions while using 97% less storage.

+# 🤝 Contributing
+
+We welcome contributions! Leann is built by the community, for the community.
+
+## Ways to Contribute
+
+- 🐛 **Bug Reports**: Found an issue? Let us know!
+- 💡 **Feature Requests**: Have an idea? We'd love to hear it!
+- 🔧 **Code Contributions**: PRs welcome for all skill levels
+- 📖 **Documentation**: Help make Leann more accessible
+- 🧪 **Benchmarks**: Share your performance results
+
+## 🚀 Development Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+1. **Install uv** (fast Python package installer):
+   ```bash
+   curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
+   ```
+
+2. **Clone the repository**:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/LEANN-RAG/LEANN-RAG.git
+   cd LEANN-RAG
+   ```
+
+3. **Install system dependencies**:
+
+   **macOS:**
+   ```bash
+   brew install llvm libomp boost protobuf zeromq pkgconf
+   ```
+
+   **Ubuntu/Debian:**
+   ```bash
+   sudo apt-get install libomp-dev libboost-all-dev protobuf-compiler \
+                        libabsl-dev libmkl-full-dev libaio-dev libzmq3-dev
+   ```
+
+4. **Build from source**:
+   ```bash
+   # macOS
+   CC=$(brew --prefix llvm)/bin/clang CXX=$(brew --prefix llvm)/bin/clang++ uv sync
+
+   # Ubuntu/Debian
+   uv sync
+   ```
+
+## 🔨 Pre-commit Hooks
+
+We use pre-commit hooks to ensure code quality and consistency. This runs automatically before each commit.
+
+### Setup Pre-commit
+
+1. **Install pre-commit** (already included when you run `uv sync`):
+   ```bash
+   uv pip install pre-commit
+   ```
+
+2. **Install the git hooks**:
+   ```bash
+   pre-commit install
+   ```
+
+3. **Run pre-commit manually** (optional):
+   ```bash
+   pre-commit run --all-files
+   ```
+
+### Pre-commit Checks
+
+Our pre-commit configuration includes:
+- **Trailing whitespace removal**
+- **End-of-file fixing**
+- **YAML validation**
+- **Large file prevention**
+- **Merge conflict detection**
+- **Debug statement detection**
+- **Code formatting with ruff**
+- **Code linting with ruff**
+
+## 🧪 Testing
+
+### Running Tests
+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+uv run pytest
+
+# Run specific test file
+uv run pytest test/test_filename.py
+
+# Run with coverage
+uv run pytest --cov=leann
+```
+
+### Writing Tests
+
+- Place tests in the `test/` directory
+- Follow the naming convention `test_*.py`
+- Use descriptive test names that explain what's being tested
+- Include both positive and negative test cases
+
+## 📝 Code Style
+
+We use `ruff` for both linting and formatting to ensure consistent code style.
+
+### Format Your Code
+
+```bash
+# Format all files
+ruff format
+
+# Check formatting without changing files
+ruff format --check
+```
+
+### Lint Your Code
+
+```bash
+# Run linter with auto-fix
+ruff check --fix
+
+# Just check without fixing
+ruff check
+```
+
+### Style Guidelines
+
+- Follow PEP 8 conventions
+- Use descriptive variable names
+- Add type hints where appropriate
+- Write docstrings for all public functions and classes
+- Keep functions focused and single-purpose
+
+## 🚦 CI/CD
+
+Our CI pipeline runs automatically on all pull requests. It includes:
+
+1. **Linting and Formatting**: Ensures code follows our style guidelines
+2. **Multi-platform builds**: Tests on Ubuntu and macOS
+3. **Python version matrix**: Tests on Python 3.9-3.13
+4. **Wheel building**: Ensures packages can be built and distributed
+
+### CI Commands
+
+The CI uses the same commands as pre-commit to ensure consistency:
+```bash
+# Linting
+ruff check .
+
+# Format checking
+ruff format --check .
+```
+
+Make sure your code passes these checks locally before pushing!
+
+## 🔄 Pull Request Process
+
+1. **Fork the repository** and create your branch from `main`:
+   ```bash
+   git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name
+   ```
+
+2. **Make your changes**:
+   - Write clean, documented code
+   - Add tests for new functionality
+   - Update documentation as needed
+
+3. **Run pre-commit checks**:
+   ```bash
+   pre-commit run --all-files
+   ```
+
+4. **Test your changes**:
+   ```bash
+   uv run pytest
+   ```
+
+5. **Commit with descriptive messages**:
+   ```bash
+   git commit -m "feat: add new search algorithm"
+   ```
+
+   Follow [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/):
+   - `feat:` for new features
+   - `fix:` for bug fixes
+   - `docs:` for documentation changes
+   - `test:` for test additions/changes
+   - `refactor:` for code refactoring
+   - `perf:` for performance improvements
+
+6. **Push and create a pull request**:
+   - Provide a clear description of your changes
+   - Reference any related issues
+   - Include examples or screenshots if applicable
+
+## 📚 Documentation
