Contribution Guideline and Tutorial Notebook

[appledora]

Eventually we would need a contribution guideline, since this is an OSS project.

A tutorial notebook, would be better at explaining the context and use-cases of the library, than the README.md

@geohci, I added a basic CONTRIBUTION.md, a couple of tutorials and a pre-commit hook in the workflow. But unfortunately I have pushed all of those in the main branch :| If this is good to go, I will publish the package to the official pyPI.

@appledora thanks for pulling together these pieces! A few points:

• I'll take a look more extensively and either file issues or add comments to this issue if I see anything that should be changed. I'll close this issue when the review is complete then.
• I actually went ahead and published the official PyPi package last week. We can coordinate so I add you and Martin as maintainers and figure out how to manage releases a bit more automatically via Gitlab

That's great to hear, @geohci !! But you should really upgrade the pyPI version, because the README.md has some outdated usage of the library and people might fall for it.
