<p>
    Adding a new community project is accomplished through a pull request to <a href="https://github.com/opensearch-project/project-website" target="_blank">opensearch-project/project-website</a> in the <code>_community_projects</code> folder. The suggested method is to fork the repo, add the <a href="https://github.com/opensearch-project/project-website/blob/main/_community_projects/_sample.md" target="_blank">community project markdown file</a> and <a href="https://github.com/opensearch-project/project-website#building-the-website" target="_blank">build the website locally to verify it looks correct</a> then contribute the changed file back to opensearch-project/project-website.
</p>
<p>  
    Alternately, this form will help you make the pull request and properly sign the DCO in the GitHub web interface by creating the pull request for you. You will need to have a GitHub account and be logged in for this form to work properly. Due to limitations in this process, you will need to add images through another method.
