Join the Kubernetes community

Kubernetes is an open source project that anyone in the community can use, improve, and enjoy. We'd love you to join us! Here's a few ways to find out what's happening and get involved.

The Kubernetes community — users, contributors, and the culture we've built together — is one of the biggest reasons for the meteoric rise of this open source project. Our culture and values continue to grow and change as the project itself grows and changes. We all work together toward constant improvement of the project and the ways we work on it.

We are the people who file issues and pull requests, attend SIG meetings, Kubernetes meetups, and KubeCon, advocate for its adoption and innovation, run kubectl get pods, and contribute in a thousand other vital ways. Read on to learn how you can get involved and become part of this amazing community.

Community Values

The Kubernetes Community values are the keystone to the ongoing success of the project.

The Kubernetes community values respect and inclusiveness, and enforces a Code of Conduct in all interactions.

If you notice a violation of the Code of Conduct at an event or meeting, in Slack, or in another communication mechanism, reach out to the Kubernetes Code of Conduct Committee at conduct@kubernetes.io. All reports are kept confidential. You can read about the committee in the Kubernetes community repository on GitHub.
