>                 Key: BEAM-8957
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-8957
>             Project: Beam
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: website
>    Affects Versions: 2.18.0
>            Reporter: elharo
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: documentation
>             Fix For: Not applicable

> Right now we have overlapping and sometimes contradictory docs on how to setup and build BEAM in four different places I've found:
>  
>  README.md
>  CONTRIBUTING.md
>  [https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/BEAM/Contributor+FAQ]
>  [https://beam.apache.org/contribute/]
>  
>  We should probably pick one as the source of truth and rewrite the
>  other three to simply point to it. I propose putting all checkout,
>  build, test, commit, and push instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md in the
>  repo.
