Kubernetes Community

Welcome to the Kubernetes community!

This is the starting point for becoming a contributor - improving docs, improving code, giving talks etc.

Communicating

The communication page lists communication channels like chat, issues, mailing lists, conferences, etc.

For more specific topics, try a SIG.

SIGs

Kubernetes is a set of projects, each shepherded by a special interest group (SIG).

A first step to contributing is to pick from the list of kubernetes SIGs.

A SIG can have its own policy for contribution, described in a README or CONTRIBUTING file in the SIG folder in this repo (e.g. sig-cli/CONTRIBUTING), and its own mailing list, slack channel, etc.

If you want to edit details about a SIG (e.g. its weekly meeting time or its leads), please follow these instructions that detail how our docs are auto-generated.

How Can I Help?

Documentation (like the text you are reading now) can always use improvement!

There's a semi-curated list of issues that should not need deep knowledge of the system.

To dig deeper, read a design doc, e.g. architecture.

Pick a SIG, peruse its associated cmd directory, find a main() and read code until you find something you want to fix.

There's always code that can be clarified and variables or functions that can be renamed or commented.

There's always a need for more test coverage.

Learn to Build

Links in contributors/devel/README.md lead to many relevant topics, including

Developer's Guide - how to start a build/test cycle
Collaboration Guide - how to work together
expectations - what the community expects
pull request policy - how to prepare a pull request

Your First Contribution

We recommend that you work on an existing issue before attempting to develop a new feature.

Start by finding an existing issue with the help wanted label; these issues we've deemed are well suited for new contributors. Alternatively, if there is a specific area you are interested in, ask a SIG lead for suggestions), and respond on the issue thread expressing interest in working on it.

This helps other people know that the issue is active, and hopefully prevents duplicated efforts.

Before submitting a pull request, sign the CLA.

If you want to work on a new idea of relatively small scope:

Submit an issue describing your proposed change to the repo in question.
The repo owners will respond to your issue promptly.
If your proposed change is accepted, sign the CLA, and start work in your fork.
Submit a pull request containing a tested change.
