How to make it easy for your software to get cited?

1. Create a DOI for your software if there isn't a software paper

• Zenodo will mint a new DOI for every release on GitHub.
• Or you can upload to Figshare to get a DOI.

2. Alert users to your citation with a file named CITATION

• Include your DOI, a suggested citation, and raw BibTeX
• Check out the example

3. Remind users to cite you when they run your software.
