### How to contribute a suggestion
Markdown is used to format the text, for more information about Markdown [see the GitHub Markdown help page](https://help.github.com/en/github/writing-on-github/basic-writing-and-formatting-syntax).
If you want to use an editor on your own computer, you may follow these steps:
* Find the Markdown file (.md) to edit in the [mermaid-js/mermaid/docs](https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/tree/develop/docs) directory on the develop branch.
* Create a fork of the develop branch.
* Make changes or add new documentation.
* Commit changes to your fork and push it to GitHub.
* Create a pull request of your fork.
If you don't have such editor on your computer, you may follow these steps:
* Login at [GitHub.com](https://www.github.com).
* Navigate to [mermaid-js/mermaid/docs](https://github.com/mermaid-js/mermaid/tree/develop/docs).
* To edit a file, click the pencil icon at the top-right of the file contents panel.
* Describe what you changed in the "Propose file change" section, located at the bottom of the page.
* Submit your changes by clicking the button "Propose file change" at the bottom (by automatic creation of a fork and a new branch).
* Create a pull request of your newly forked branch, by clicking the green "Create pull request" button.
