In the the steps below draw on the patterns and examples of existing code

1. Create a new git branch.
2. In ./index_function/index_functions.py add the class that is the "computational engine" for the index.
3. In ./index_function/init.py add the class name as given in the previous point.
4. In the the ./etc/metadata.yml add the metadata description of the corresponding index function.
5. In setup.py add the "connection" between the index function defined in 3 and the class defined in 2.
6. Create a new git branch (based on the branch created in 1).
7. Implement a specific index to enable testing the index function.
8. Install the new version locally in the branch.
9. Run appropriate tests.
10. After all tests have been passed, submit a merge request.
