+### Branching Model
+The `master` branch of coderplex is relatively stable branch which we update for every release. We also have auto deployment in place for that particular branch i.e any changes in that branch gets reflected in [https://coderplex.org](https://coderplex.org). Before every release we throughly test develop branch and merge into master.
