 [QMK](https://github.com/qmk), short for Quantum Mechanical Keyboard, is a group of people building tools for custom keyboards. We started with the [QMK firmware](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware), a heavily modified fork of [TMK](https://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard).
 
+## I don't know where to start!
+
+If this is the case, then you should start with our [Newbs Guide](newbs.md). There is a lot of great info there, and that should cover everything you need to get started.
+
+If that's an issue, hop onto the [QMK Configurator](https://config.qmk.fm), as that will handle a majority of what you need there.
+
+## How can I flash the firmware I built?
+
+First, head to the [Compiling/Flashing FAQ Page](faq_build.md). There is a good deal of info there, and you'll find a bunch of solutions to common issues there.
+
+## What if I have an issue that isn't covered here?
+
+Okay, that's fine. Then please check the [open issues in our GitHub](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues) to see if somebody is experiencing the same thing (make sure it's not just similar, but actually the same).
+
+If you can't find anything, then please open a [new issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new)!
+
+## What if I found a bug?
+
+Then please open an [issue](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/new), and if you know how to fix it, open up a Pull Request on GitHub with the fix.
+
+## But `git` and `GitHub` are intimidating!
+
+Don't worry, we have some pretty nice [Guidelines](newbs_git_best_practices.md) on how to start using `git` and GitHub to make things easier to develop.
+
+Additionally, you can find additional `git` and GitHub related links [here](newbs_learn_more_resources.md).
+
+## I have a Keyboard that I want to add support for
+
+Awesome! Open up a Pull Request for it. We'll review the code, and merge it!
+
+### What if I want to do brand it with `QMK`?
+
+That's amazing! We would love to assist you with that!
+
+In fact, we have a [whole page](https://qmk.fm/powered/) dedicated to adding QMK Branding to your page and keyboard. This covers pretty much everything you need (knowledge and images) to officially support QMK.
+
+If you have any questions about this, open an issue or head to [Discord](https://discord.gg/Uq7gcHh).

 ## What Differences Are There Between QMK and TMK?
 
 TMK was originally designed and implemented by [Jun Wako](https://github.com/tmk). QMK started as [Jack Humbert](https://github.com/jackhumbert)'s fork of TMK for the Planck. After a while Jack's fork had diverged quite a bit from TMK, and in 2015 Jack decided to rename his fork to QMK.
