Welcome to the TiDB Community! The main objective is to help members of the TiDB community who share similar interests to learn from and collaborate with each other.
Your journey of becoming a contributor and committer starts from here: improving docs, improving code, giving talks, organizing meetups, etc.
The TiDB User Groups (TUGs) are groups for facilitating communication and discovery of information related to topics that have long term relevance to large groups of TiDB users.
See docs or docs-cn for user documents. Also you can get help in AskTUG if you met any problem.
The communication page lists communication channels like chat, social medias, etc.
For more specific topics, join https://pingcap.com/tidbslack and discuss with others.
TiDB has the following types of groups that are officially supported:
-
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are persistent open groups that focus on a module of TiDB. SIGs must have open and transparent proceedings. Anyone is welcome to participate and contribute provided they follow the TiDB Code of Conduct. The purpose of a SIG is to own and develop a module of TiDB.
-
Working Groups (WGs) are temporary groups that are formed to address issues that cross SIG boundaries. Working groups do not own any code or other long term artifacts. Working groups can report back and act through involved SIGs.
Contributions are welcomed and greatly appreciated. See How to contribute for details on setting up development environment, contribution workflow and submitting patches, etc.
Learning resources are collected in the learning resources page. Here you can find all the resources which helps you learn and contribute TiDB. For example, you can learn TiDB architecture though the following blogs:
- How we build TiDB: English, Chinese
