## Steps for making an edit
Crypto Wake is hosted on a repository in GitLab, and entries are written in a simple format called [Markdown](https://www.markdownguide.org/cheat-sheet). To contribute, use the following steps:
* Press "Contribute" on the top-right of the website, or go [here](https://cryptowake.medlab.host/)
* Log into GitLab. You can use various social logins, from Google to GitHub.
* Then press "Web IDE" on the main repository page. When prompted, press "Fork project." This will create a copy of the project on your account.
* On the left file listing, navigate to `files > docs > stories` to see a list of existing story pages. Choose a story page to edit or create a new one using the pop-up menu next to the `stories` folder.
* Make the changes you would like to see, in one file or multiple files.
* When you're finished, press the "Create commit..." button under the file listing on the left.
* Enter some text as a commit message that summarizes what you did.
* Choose "Create a new branch" and leave "Start a new merge request" checked, and press "Commit."
* Review the information on the next screen and, to proceed, press "Create merge request." This will submit the changes to us for review. Thank you!
