Discord or Matrix โ bridged together
To get started coding, see the Contributing Guide on the GitHub wiki. This wiki is the primary source of information for new contributors. We officially support Linux, macOS, and Windows (WSL2) operating systems.
We also invite you to join our Discord server or Matrix room to receive support and chat with others โ both platforms are bridged together, so you will see the same messages in either one. These are our primary communication channels. They are free to join, and we are always happy to help you get started!
There are several contributor incentives available, including a unique profile badge, cash bounties, and free JetBrains IDE subscriptions for active contributors. Read more here.
OpenStreetMap-NG is an open, community-driven project. The best ideas come from people just like you! We believe the community is the heart of OpenStreetMap and that everyone should have an equal say.
This project is funded entirely through community donations. We are not sponsored nor endorsed by the OpenStreetMap Foundation. We are everyday mappers who want to make a difference.
The following table outlines the notable features that need to be finished before the first public release of OpenStreetMap-NG. This represents our roadmap to achieving feature parity with the current OpenStreetMap Ruby implementation.
