+## 🛠️ Development Guide
+
+Welcome to the development guide for the Photoshop Python API project! This section outlines our development practices and standards to ensure code quality and consistency.
+
+### 📋 Quick Start for Contributors
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/loonghao/photoshop-python-api.git
+cd photoshop-python-api
+
+# Install dependencies with Poetry
+poetry install
+
+# Install pre-commit hooks
+pre-commit install
+
+# Run tests
+pytest
+```
+
+### 🎨 Code Style & Quality
+
+We maintain high code quality standards through automated tools and consistent style guidelines:
+
+- **Style Guide**: We follow the [Google Python Style Guide](https://google.github.io/styleguide/pyguide.html) with project-specific adjustments:
+  - Line length: 120 characters max
+  - Docstrings: Google style format
+  - Quotes: Double quotes preferred
+
+- **Quality Tools**:
+  - [Black](https://black.readthedocs.io/) - Code formatting
+  - [isort](https://pycqa.github.io/isort/) - Import organization
+  - [flake8](https://flake8.pycqa.org/) - Style enforcement
+  - [pre-commit](https://pre-commit.com/) - Automated checks before commits
+
+### 🔄 Git Workflow
+
+We use a structured workflow to maintain a clean and organized repository:
+
+- **Commit Messages**: Follow [Conventional Commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/) format
+
+  ```text
+  <type>(<scope>): <description>
+
+  [optional body]
+
+  [optional footer(s)]
+  ```
+
+  Common types: `feat`, `fix`, `docs`, `style`, `refactor`, `test`, `chore`
+
+- **Branching Strategy**:
+  - Main branch: `main` - Always stable and deployable
+  - Feature branches: `feature/<feature-name>`
+  - Bug fixes: `fix/<bug-description>`
+  - Documentation: `docs/<doc-description>`
+
+### 🧪 Testing
+
+We value thorough testing to ensure reliability:
+
+- **Framework**: We use `pytest` for all tests
+- **Coverage**: Aim for high test coverage on new features
+- **Run Tests**: `pytest` or `poetry run pytest`
+
+### 📦 Development Environment
+
+- **Python Versions**: We support Python 3.8+ (see `pyproject.toml` for specifics)
+- **Dependency Management**: [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) for consistent environments
+- **Virtual Environment**: Poetry automatically creates and manages virtual environments
+
