- Read our getting started articles and our Guide to happy and effective volunteering. (These are currently being reworked by volunteers to bring them up to date!)

For Dreamwidth Developers
Are you a developer and want to help improve Dreamwidth's code?
- Read our Dev Getting Started guide.
- Head over to Development for more how-to guides.
For people installing the Dreamwidth code
We highly recommend people doing this seek assistance in the Discord channel. We'd love to help you out. You can also post to the dw_dev community for assistance.
If you're planning to install the Dreamwidth code to develop and contribute to the Dreamwidth project, you are welcome to do this. However, if you'd rather not install it yourself, you can apply for a hosted Dreamhack.
