+# Help
+
+## Running the tests
+
+Write your code in `<exercise_name>.zig`.
+
+To run the tests for an exercise, run:
+
+```bash
+zig test test_exercise_name.zig
+```
+
+in the exercise's root directory (replacing `exercise_name` with the name of the exercise).
+
+## Submitting your solution
+
+You can submit your solution using the `exercism submit hello_world.zig` command.
+This command will upload your solution to the Exercism website and print the solution page's URL.
+
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution which allows you to:
+
+- See how others have completed the exercise
+- Request help from a mentor
+
+## Need to get help?
