We Need You

Yes, you.

Diaspora is an open source project, which means all our code and documentation is available for free to anyone online. It also means that, while there is a core team working on the project full time, it only thrives because we have a wonderful set of volunteer collaborators who help out in their free time.

Some of these volunteers are developers and help with the code, which is the "traditional" way to help out an open source project, and is awesome. But many are not developers, and their contributions are awesome too.

How to get started

Come talk to us. The best ways to get in touch in realtime are our Convore group, or IRC. Tell us what you're interested in working on - code, tutorials, feature ideas, mockups, running a pod, helping with the wiki, other - and we can help you figure out how to get going.
