+# Support
+
+This article explains how and where to get help.
+Please read through the following guidelines.
+
+## Asking quality questions
+
+Questions can go to [GitHub discussions][chat].
+
+Help us help you!
+Spend time framing questions and add links and resources.
+Spending the extra time up front helps save everyone time in the long run.
+Here are some tips:
+
+- see [this article on _How do I ask a good question_][how-to-ask] for help
+- [talk to a duck][rubberduck]!
+- don’t fall for the [XY problem][xy]
+- search to find out if a similar question has been asked
+- try to define what you need help with:
+ - is there something in particular you want to do?
+ - what problem are you encountering and what steps have you taken to try
+ and fix it?
+ - is there a concept you don’t understand?
+- provide sample code, if possible
+- screenshots can help, but if there’s important text such as code or error
+ messages in them, please also provide those as text
+- the more time you put into asking your question, the better we can help you
