+# Code Review Process
+
+## The Rules
+
+1. All code must be reviewed _without exception_, via a pull request. If you are not
+   familiar with how to create a pull request in Github, find someone to pair with for
+   your first couple.
+
+2. The creator of the pull request is responsible for making the merge
+   button green (merging in master, addressing conflicts, passing tests, passing
+   lint tests, getting approvals). If the PR is handed off to another person,
+   it should be noted in the comments of the PR.
+
+3. Feature branches should be created from and merged back into master.
+   A feature branch should be short lived, and reasonbly small. The smaller it is, the
+   easier it is for someone to review it.
+   
+4. Feedback should be aimed at addressing incorrect functionality, poorly code quality, 
+   and missing tests. Let the linter handle the nit-picks on style, etc.
+
+5. Developers of all skill levels should review code and have their code reviewed.
+   Even if you don’t feel like you’re qualified to review someone’s code,
+   do it anyways; it’s a great way to learn. If either the reviewer or the
+   PR creator feels it needs another set of eyes, they can (and should) say so.
+   
+6. Don't hesitate to ask questions about anything you don't understand. Worst-case, 
+   you didn't understand it and you learn something; best case, the author also 
+   didn't understand it, so it probably needs to be re-evaluated.
+
+## Code Review Etiquette
+
+[View](https://github.com/thoughtbot/guides/tree/master/code-review)
+
+## Pull Request Workflow
+
+Writing code in a pull-request oriented git workflow is critical to
+obtaining good code-reviews. Each specific User Story needs to live inside
+its own feature branch. Code changes should be as focused as possible and
+not branch across multiple stories or features as to make the changes
+simpler to review. The more code changes there are in a Pull Request
+the harder it is to review.
+
+## Creating a feature branch
+
+First, checkout master and make sure it is up to date
+
+```bash
+git checkout master
+git pull origin master
+```
+
+Now, when you start a card, create a new feature branch that all of your code
+changes will live on.
+
+```bash
+git checkout -b branch-name
+```
+
+Branch names can be whatever you want, but it’s recommended that you include the
+Jira card number in the name, like feat/SB-101 or bug/SB-102. That way, Jira will
+pick up the card, for various git integration features. This also helps you remember
+that a branch should be as small as possible, and not include code for multiple cards.
+
+An alternative to putting the Jira card number in the branch name would be to put
+it in the commit message. Jira will pick that up in the same way.
+
+Once you have completed your changes, push the branch up to github:
+
+```bash
+git push origin branch-name
+```
+
+When your branch is ready, make a pull request.
+
+### Pull Request Format
+
+All pull requests should include a “Why?” section, with links to the Jira cards
+and a “What changed?” section with high-level details about the change. Changes
+that include graphical components (frontend and admin changes) should also include
+screenshots at any relevant screen sizes. All of this information is important for
+providing context to reviewers, and anyone looking back at the PR later for reference.
+
+Most of our projects also include a [pull_request_template.md](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-a-pull-request-template-for-your-repository/)
+file for this format.
+
+### Review Process
+
+When your pull request is ready, and all your tests are passing, you can request a
+code review by posting your PR url in the *code-reviews* Slack channel. You're also encouraged
+to use [PR/MATE](https://github.com/smashingboxes/pr-mate),
+a tool we wrote that will include various metadata about the PR. The format for that is:
+
+```md
+/pr-mate <pull-request-url>
+```
+
+### Merging Pull Requests
+
+Once your code has been reviewed and your reviewer has expressed approval, you have
+approval via github’s PR approve feature or an approval emoji (thumbs up, shipit, etc),
+and tests and linting are passing, you are ready to merge.
