dapr/community

Dapr Community is a governance and community hub that serves as the central point for contributing to Dapr, the Distributed Application Runtime, and its open source sub-projects.

The repository addresses the need for organized community coordination around Dapr, a portable, serverless, event-driven runtime designed to help developers build resilient microservices across cloud and edge environments. It provides the infrastructure for community members to connect, collaborate, and contribute through multiple channels including Discord discussions, bi-monthly community calls streamed on YouTube, and issue tracking for planning and topic suggestions.

Developers should use this repository if they want to get involved with Dapr development, improve documentation, give presentations, or participate in community discussions. The project welcomes contributors of all levels and emphasizes a friendly, collaborative approach. The community calls occur every four weeks and allow anyone to participate, present topics, or host sessions. Those seeking to understand Dapr's governance structure, find contribution guidelines, or learn about community roles and involvement opportunities will find this repository essential.

The project maintains active community engagement through regular bi-monthly livestreamed calls on YouTube where new features are showcased and upcoming milestones are reviewed. Community call planning happens transparently through pinned issues in the repository where members can suggest topics and volunteer to present. The Discord server serves as the primary communication platform for ongoing discussions and questions, with community members encouraged to answer each other's inquiries. The project maintains a blog and Twitter presence to share updates and announcements with the broader community.
