Dapr Community

License: Apache 2.0 Good First Issues discord YouTube X/Twitter

Welcome to the Dapr community. This is the starting point for becoming a contributor, improving the code and docs, giving presentations and all the goodness of helping out on the project. We are a friendly, collaborative group and look forward to working together.

Introduction

The Distributed Application Runtime, Dapr, is a portable, serverless, event-driven runtime that makes it easy for developers to build resilient, stateless and stateful microservices that run on the cloud and edge and embraces the diversity of languages and developer frameworks.

Dapr codifies the best practices for building microservice applications into open, independent, building blocks that enable you to build portable applications with the language and framework of your choice. Each building block is independent and you can use one, some, or all of them in your application.

Visit dapr.io for information about Dapr.

Dapr authors

Dapr is an open source project with an active development community.

Communication and Discord

We would greatly appreciate your contributions and suggestions! One of the easiest ways to contribute is to participate in Discord discussions, or join the bi-monthly community calls.

Questions and issues

Community calls

You can watch our community calls live on our YouTube stream or rewatch the recording later on the Dapr YouTube channel.

Every two weeks we live stream a community call on YouTube to showcase new features, highlight client case studies, review upcoming milestones, and engage in a Q&A. For these community calls, anyone from the Dapr community can participate, present a topic, or host. All are welcome!

Issues in this community repo are used to plan the community calls and suggest topics. The next three upcoming calls are pinned as issues in this repository and can be used to submit suggestions for the call. To speak about a Dapr related topic on a community call, comment on the issue for the date you would like to present on. Alternatively, you're also welcome to use the #general channel in the Dapr Discord server to talk about future agenda topics. The meeting agenda for each call is finalized by the community call host.

Community members (members of the Dapr GitHub org) can nominate themselves via an issue on the dapr/community repository to be a community call host. Members become approved community call hosts when two or more existing community hosts approve their request, similar to how members and approvers get accepted today.

Upcoming community call dates

Use this issue query to check the date and agenda for the upcoming community calls.

Special roles

How can I get involved?

One of the easiest ways to contribute is to participate in discussions at community engagements or write a blog entry.

If you're looking for something to work on, read the contribution guidelines and then you start by looking for GitHub issues, marked with "Good First Issue" or the "Help Wanted" labels:

And, we can always use more testing, have more and improved docs, or just write a blog post on what you have discovered whilst using Dapr.
