+### Build the extractor
 
-Here are a few things you can do that will increase the likelihood of your pull request being accepted:
+To build the extractor, use the following command:
 
-- Write tests.
-- Keep your change as focused as possible. If there are multiple changes you would like to make that are not dependent upon each other, consider submitting them as separate pull requests.
-- Write a [good commit message](http://tbaggery.com/2008/04/19/a-note-about-git-commit-messages.html).
+```sh
+./scripts/create-extractor-pack.sh
+```
+
+This will create the extractor pack in the `./extractor-pack` directory.
+
+### Installing Dependencies
+
+To install the dependencies of the queries, run the following command:
+
+```sh
+codeql pack install ./ql/lib
+```
+
+This will install the necessary dependencies for the library queries.
+Alternatively, you can install them using VSCode's CodeQL extension.
+
+### Compiling the Library
+
+To compile the library queries, run:
+
+```sh
+codeql pack create ./ql/lib
+```
+
+You can also install these packs into the CodeQL home directory using:
+
+```sh
+codeql pack install --output=$HOME/.codeql/packages ./ql/lib
+```
+
+This will allow your to use the library on your local machine with CodeQL CLI.
+
+### Run Tests
+
+To run all tests:
+
+```sh
+./scripts/run-tests.sh
+```
+
+Or use VSCode's test runner for supported tests.
+
+## Submitting a Pull Request

+1. Fork and clone the repository
+2. Create a new branch: `git checkout -b my-feature`
+3. Make your changes and add tests if needed
