There are quite a few ways to contribute to the project, find inspiration from the table below.
| Activity | Description |
|---|---|
| Community Q&A | We encourage you to ask and answer technical questions on GitHub discussions or Slack, but the former is often preferable since it will be picked up by search engines. |
| Report bugs and security vulnerabilities | We use GitHub issues to keep track of known bugs and security vulnerabilities. We keep a close eye on them and update them when we have an internal fix in progress. Before you report a new issue, do your best to ensure your problem hasn't already been reported. If it has, just leave a comment on the existing issue, rather than create a new one. If you have already checked the existing GitHub issues and are still convinced that you have found odd or erroneous behaviour then please file a new one. |
| Propose a new feature | If you have new ideas for Kedro functionality then please open a GitHub issue and describe the feature you would like to see, why you need it, and how it should work. |
| Review pull requests | Check the Kedro repo to find open pull requests and contribute a review! |
| Contribute a fix or feature | If you're interested in contributing fixes to code or documentation, first read our guidelines for contributing developers for an explanation of how to get set up and the process you'll follow. Once you are ready to contribute, a good place to start is to take a look at the good first issues and help wanted issues on GitHub. |
| Contribute to the documentation | You can help us improve the Kedro documentation online. Send us feedback as a GitHub issue or start a documentation discussion on GitHub.You are also welcome to make a raise a PR with a bug fix or addition to the documentation. First read the guide Contribute to the Kedro documentation. |
Kedro is an incubating project in LF AI & Data, a sub-organisation within the Linux Foundation that focuses on open innovation within the data and AI space. A group of maintainers, known as the Technical Steering Committee (TSC), govern the project. You can read more about the structure of our TSC in our Technical Charter.
We invite community members to join the TSC and help define the future of the Kedro project. Read the guidance on becoming a Kedro maintainer to understand the process of joining the TSC.
