+Building with poetry
+====================
+
+Installing poetry
+=================
+
+numpy-financial uses `poetry <https://python-poetry.org/>`__ to manage
+dependencies, build wheels and sdists, and publish to PyPI this page documents
+how to work with poetry.
+
+To install poetry follow their `official guide <https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installing-with-the-official-installer>`__.
+It is recommended to use the official installer for local development.
+
+To check your installation try to check the version of poetry::
+
+    poetry -V
+
+
+Setting up a virtual environment using poetry
+=============================================
+
+Once poetry is installed it is time to set up the virtual environment. To do
+this, run::
+
+    poetry install
+
+
+``poetry install`` looks for dependencies in the ``pyproject.toml`` file,
+resolves them to the most recent version and installs the dependencies
+in a virtual environment. It is now possible to launch an interactive REPL
+by running the following command::
+
+    poetry run python
+
+Running the test suite
+======================
+
+``numpy-financial``` has an extensive test suite, which can be run with the
+following command::
+
+    poetry run pytest
+
+Building distributions
+======================
+
+It is possible to manually build distributions for ``numpy-financial`` using
+poetry. This is possible via the ``build`` command::
+
+    poetry build
+
+The ``build`` command creates a ``dist`` directory containing a wheel and sdist
+file.
+
+Publishing to PyPI
+==================
+
+poetry provides support to publish packages to PyPI. This is possible using
+the ``publish`` command::
+
+    poetry publish --build --username <your username> --password <your password>
+
+Note that this builds the package before publishing it. You will need to 
+provide the correct username and password for PyPI.

+================
+Getting the code
+================
+
+This document explains how to get the source code for NumPy-Financial using Git.
+
+Code Location
+=============
+
+NumPy-Financial is hosted on GitHub. The repository URL is
+https://github.com/numpy/numpy-financial.
+
+Creating a fork
+===============
+
+To create a fork click the green "fork" button at the top right of the page.
+This creates a new repository on your GitHub profile. This will have the URL:
+``https://github.com/<your_username>/numpy-financial``.
+
+Cloning the repository
+======================
+
+Now that you have forked the repository you will need to clone it. This copies
+the repository from GitHub to the local machine. To clone a repository enter the
+following commands in the terminal::
+
+    git clone https://github.com/<your_username>/numpy-financial.git
+
+Hooray! You now have a working copy of NumPy-Financial.
+
+
+Updating the code with other's changes
+======================================
+
+From time to time you may want to pull down the latest code. Do this with::
+
+    git fetch
+
+The ``git fetch`` command downloads commits, files and refs from a remote repo
+into your local repo.
+
+Then run::
+
+    git merge --ff-only
+
+The ``git merge`` command is Git's way of putting independent branches back
+together. The ``--ff-only`` flag tells git to use ``fast-forward`` merges. This
+is preferable as fast-forward merge avoids creating merge commits.
