Welcome to the Eclipse IDE contributor community! This Eclipse-IDE organization helps you to get started and our goal is to make your contribution experience as smooth as possible. If you’re facing issues with the setup or need guidance on your initial contributions, don’t hesitate to reach out!
-
Start a discussion in our Q&A discussions. This way, your questions and solutions remain visible for others and helps them as well. Our mentors and experienced contributors are there to help!
-
Create an contributing/issue, if you have problems with the contribution documentation or encounter a mistake.
Technical problems respectivly their solutions are best discussed at a corresponding Github issue, discussion or pull-request of the affected project. See the Project Discovery Guide to find it.
If you don't get answers for your questions using the channels listed above, you have a couple of options to chat directly with Eclipse IDE developers:
Eclipse Foundation Chat - If you'd like to connect with the community in real-time, join our chat rooms:
- Eclipse IDE General - For everything related to the Eclipse IDE.
- Eclipse IDE Newcomers - Especially for new contributors looking for guidance and advice.
The chat provides a real-time experience but is less visible long-term, so we recommend starting with GitHub Discussions for questions that could help other contributors.
Thank you for being part of the Eclipse community. We’re excited to support your journey and look forward to your contributions!
