# Contributing guidelines
The ocm repo contains 4 core components:
* registration
* placement
* work
* registration-operator
Before 0.11.0, the 4 components has independent repos, now we are going through [the task of consolidating code](https://github.com/open-cluster-management-io/OCM/issues/128) to merge all code into this repo to gain all kinds of benifits.
We're contiously working on migrate code from `/staging` folder to outside. Finally, the `/staging` folder will be empty and removed.
Here is a table of the migration status:
| Component | Status |
| --- | --- |
| registration | staging |
| placement | staging |
| work | staging |
| registration-operator | staging |
Status:
* staging: the component is having all code in `staging` folder.
* mix: the component is having code in both `staging` and outside.
* done: the component is having all code outside `staging` folder and done of the migration.
If a component is in the `staging` status, you need to open project in the `/staging` folder and contribute there.
