+Code of Conduct
+***************
+
+Our Pledge
+----------
+
+We pledge to make our community welcoming, safe, and equitable for all.
+
+We are committed to fostering an environment that respects and promotes the dignity,
+rights, and contributions of all individuals, regardless of characteristics including
+race, ethnicity, caste, color, age, physical characteristics, neurodiversity,
+disability, sex or gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, language,
+philosophy or religion, national or social origin, socio-economic position, level of
+education, or other status. The same privileges of participation are extended to
+everyone who participates in good faith and in accordance with this Covenant.
+
+Encouraged Behaviors
+--------------------
+
+While acknowledging differences in social norms, we all strive to meet our community's
+expectations for positive behavior. We also understand that our words and actions may be
+interpreted differently than we intend based on culture, background, or native language.
+
+With these considerations in mind, we agree to behave mindfully toward each other and act
+in ways that center our shared values, including:
+
+1. Respecting the **purpose of our community**, our activities, and our ways of gathering.
+2. Engaging **kindly and honestly** with others.
+3. Respecting **different viewpoints** and experiences.
+4. **Taking responsibility** for our actions and contributions.
+5. Gracefully giving and accepting **constructive feedback**.
+6. Committing to **repairing harm** when it occurs.
+7. Behaving in other ways that promote and sustain the **well-being of our community**.
+
+Restricted Behaviors
+--------------------
+
+We agree to restrict the following behaviors in our community. Instances, threats, and
+promotion of these behaviors are violations of this Code of Conduct.
+
+1. **Harassment.** Violating explicitly expressed boundaries or engaging in unnecessary
+   personal attention after any clear request to stop.
+2. **Character attacks.** Making insulting, demeaning, or pejorative comments directed at
+   a community member or group of people.
+3. **Stereotyping or discrimination.** Characterizing anyone's personality or behavior on
+   the basis of immutable identities or traits.
+4. **Sexualization.** Behaving in a way that would generally be considered inappropriately
+   intimate in the context or purpose of the community.
+5. **Violating confidentiality.** Sharing or acting on someone's personal or private
+   information without their permission.
+6. **Endangerment.** Causing, encouraging, or threatening violence or other harm toward
+   any person or group.
+7. Behaving in other ways that **threaten the well-being** of our community.
+
+Other Restrictions
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+1. **Misleading identity.** Impersonating someone else for any reason, or pretending to be
+   someone else to evade enforcement actions.
+2. **Failing to credit sources.** Not properly crediting the sources of content you
+   contribute.
+3. **Promotional materials.** Sharing marketing or other commercial content in a way that
+   is outside the norms of the community.
+4. **Irresponsible communication.** Failing to responsibly present content which includes,
+   links or describes any other restricted behaviors.
+
+Reporting an Issue
+------------------
+
+Tensions can occur between community members even when they are trying their best to
+collaborate. Not every conflict represents a code of conduct violation, and this Code of
+Conduct reinforces encouraged behaviors and norms that can help avoid conflicts and
+minimize harm.
+
+When an incident does occur, it is important to report it promptly. To report a possible
+violation, contact the project team at thach@tinyusb.org.
+
+Community Moderators take reports of violations seriously and will make every effort to
+respond in a timely manner. They will investigate all reports of code of conduct
+violations, reviewing messages, logs, and recordings, or interviewing witnesses and other
+participants. Community Moderators will keep investigation and enforcement actions as
+transparent as possible while prioritizing safety and confidentiality. In order to honor
+these values, enforcement actions are carried out in private with the involved parties,
+but communicating to the whole community may be part of a mutually agreed upon resolution.
+
+Addressing and Repairing Harm
+-----------------------------
+
+If an investigation by the Community Moderators finds that this Code of Conduct has been
+violated, the following enforcement ladder may be used to determine how best to repair
+harm, based on the incident's impact on the individuals involved and the community as a
+whole. Depending on the severity of a violation, lower rungs on the ladder may be skipped.
+
+1. **Warning**
+
+   - **Event:** A violation involving a single incident or series of incidents.
+   - **Consequence:** A private, written warning from the Community Moderators.
+   - **Repair:** Examples of repair include a private written apology, acknowledgement of
+     responsibility, and seeking clarification on expectations.
+
+2. **Temporarily Limited Activities**
+
+   - **Event:** A repeated incidence of a violation that previously resulted in a warning,
+     or the first incidence of a more serious violation.
+   - **Consequence:** A private, written warning with a time-limited cooldown period
+     designed to underscore the seriousness of the situation and give the community members
+     involved time to process the incident. The cooldown period may be limited to particular
+     communication channels or interactions with particular community members.
+   - **Repair:** Examples of repair may include making an apology, using the cooldown period
+     to reflect on actions and impact, and being thoughtful about re-entering community
+     spaces after the period is over.
+
+3. **Temporary Suspension**
+
+   - **Event:** A pattern of repeated violation which the Community Moderators have tried to
+     address with warnings, or a single serious violation.
+   - **Consequence:** A private written warning with conditions for return from suspension.
+     In general, temporary suspensions give the person being suspended time to reflect upon
+     their behavior and possible corrective actions.
+   - **Repair:** Examples of repair include respecting the spirit of the suspension, meeting
+     the specified conditions for return, and being thoughtful about how to reintegrate with
+     the community when the suspension is lifted.
+
+4. **Permanent Ban**
+
+   - **Event:** A pattern of repeated code of conduct violations that other steps on the
+     ladder have failed to resolve, or a violation so serious that the Community Moderators
+     determine there is no way to keep the community safe with this person as a member.
+   - **Consequence:** Access to all community spaces, tools, and communication channels is
+     removed. In general, permanent bans should be rarely used, should have strong reasoning
+     behind them, and should only be resorted to if working through other remedies has failed
+     to change the behavior.
+   - **Repair:** There is no possible repair in cases of this severity.
+
+This enforcement ladder is intended as a guideline. It does not limit the ability of
+Community Managers to use their discretion and judgment, in keeping with the best interests
+of our community.
+
+Scope
+-----
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when an
+individual is officially representing the community in public or other spaces. Examples of
+representing our community include using an official email address, posting via an official
+social media account, or acting as an appointed representative at an online or offline event.
