Fine! I suggest to add something about subpart in parts\s folder in the last sentence.

Hi Orion. Done but when I added unofficial part 76797 (and also created parts/s for subpart 76797) I cant find it in Stud.io's parts list. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Be sure to filter for "Custom Parts" instead of "Main Parts" in Stud.io

OK, thanks!  But it seems that this part (76797) doesn't fit with other parts now. Maybe it needs some work yet. I can use the part but can't fit it on other parts.

If you want it to snap on other parts you must add connectivity using studio part designer. Otherwise use the move/rotate tool of studio

Perhaps mention to create a folder "s" for subparts?
(if you only add one part that uses subparts)
