+**Code of Conduct for My-first-Neo-project**
+
+***Our Pledge***
+
+We as members, contributors, and leaders of the My-first-Neo-project pledge to make participation in our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+We are committed to fostering an environment that is not only productive and educational but also inclusive and respectful for all.
+
+---
+
+***Our Standards***
+
+We strive to:
+- **Be Friendly and Patient:** Remember that you might be communicating with someone for whom English is a second language, or who may not have the same context or experience level as you. We are all here to learn. Assume good faith.
+- **Be Welcoming:** We welcome and support people of all backgrounds and identities, especially those new to open-source.
+- **Be Respectful:** Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior and poor manners. Disagreement is an opportunity to learn from different perspectives.
+- **Be Clear and Constructive:** We value clear, effective communication. Be direct and constructive in your feedback, whether it's about code, documentation, or ideas.
+- **Take Responsibility for Our Impact:** Our words and actions have consequences. If someone says they have been harmed through your words or actions, listen carefully and apologize sincerely.
