Thanks for reporting the broken link to that contributing page!

We're in the process of fixing this, but it's gotten wrapped up in some other infra related issues. Another nudge is helpful though.

In the meantime, you can find the content you're looking for in the GeoCAT-viz and GeoCAT-comp installation documentation.

A quick question though (since I think the statement surrounding the broken link might be somewhat misleading and I'd love to check that assumption)... are you looking to set up a Python environment where you can run these examples scripts (including geoCAT-viz / geoCAT-comp) or just install the geoCAT-viz and/or comp packages so you can use functionality from those? If you're looking to do the former, this section of the geoCAT-examples installation documentation should get you all set up. If you're looking to do the latter, the links above to the GeoCAT-viz and GeoCAT-comp documentation is where you'll want to look.

Should be updated now for clarity and have the broken link removed.

Let us know if you run into any other problems!
