+## How to make a good bug report
+
+When you submit an issue to [GitHub](https://github.com/microsoft/FLAML/issues), please do your best to
+follow these guidelines! This will make it a lot easier to provide you with good
+feedback:
+
+- The ideal bug report contains a short reproducible code snippet. This way
+  anyone can try to reproduce the bug easily (see [this](https://stackoverflow.com/help/mcve) for more details). If your snippet is
+  longer than around 50 lines, please link to a [gist](https://gist.github.com) or a GitHub repo.
+
+- If an exception is raised, please **provide the full traceback**.
+
+- Please include your **operating system type and version number**, as well as
+  your **Python, flaml, scikit-learn versions**. The version of flaml
+  can be found by running the following code snippet:
+```python
+import flaml
+print(flaml.__version__)
+```
+
+- Please ensure all **code snippets and error messages are formatted in
+  appropriate code blocks**.  See [Creating and highlighting code blocks](https://help.github.com/articles/creating-and-highlighting-code-blocks)
+  for more details.
