for future code sprints / general friendliness to new contributors, it might be nice to have a website page that steps through the various IDE settings that are helpful when contributing to MNE-Python. Examples:

• how to add automatic style checking to the IDE
• how to add a ruler at 79 characters to the editor

It might also include other "tips and tricks" like how to properly link a PR to an issue that it fixes, by using GitHub's magic phrases (e.g., explain that closes #XXXX will work, but solves issue #XXXX will not)
