Join the Leaf PHP Community!
Leaf's community is growing incredibly fast and if you're reading this, there's a good chance you're ready to join it. So... welcome!
Now we'll answer both what the community can do for you and what you can do for the community.
Resources
Code of Conduct
Our Code of Conduct is a guide to make it easier to enrich all of us and the technical communities in which we participate.
Get Support
- Forum: The best place to ask questions and get answers about Leaf and its ecosystem.
- GitHub: If you have a bug to report or a feature request, that's what the GitHub issues are for. We also welcome pull requests!
- Discord server: A place for Leaf devs to meet and chat in real time.
What You Can Do
Contribute Code
As with any project, there are rules to contributing. To ensure that we can help you or accept your pull request as quickly as possible, please read the contributing guide.
After that, you'll be ready to contribute to Leaf's core repositories:
- Leaf: the core library
- Leaf MVC: MVC powered wrapper around Leaf PHP
- Leaf API: MVC powered wrapper specialized for building APIs.
...as well as many smaller official companion libraries.
Share (and Build) Your Experience
Apart from answering questions and sharing resources in the forum and chat, there are a few other less obvious ways to share and expand what you know:
- Develop learning materials. It's often said that the best way to learn is to teach. If there's something interesting you're doing with Leaf, strengthen your expertise by writing a blog post, developing a workshop, or even publishing a gist that you share on social media.
- Watch a repo you care about. This will send you notifications whenever there's activity in that repository, giving you insider knowledge about ongoing discussions and upcoming features. It's a fantastic way to build expertise so that you're eventually able to help address issues and pull requests.
Help manage our Community
With the growth of Leaf, we need more hands to moderate activities on our discord chat, keep up with our documentation, GitHub discussions, twitter and the like.
If you want to help with any of these, kindly reach out on twitter @leafphp or email mychi@leafphp.dev
