A collaborative effort to define and maintain standards that make open-source projects and communities truly open, inclusive, and respectful.
Our initial focus is a comprehensive Code of Conduct, but this repository is intended to grow with additional guidelines, tools, and resources that support healthy open communities.
- Provide a clear, friendly, and actionable Code of Conduct for community projects.
- Offer guidance and templates for community managers and contributors.
- Empower projects to adopt inclusive practices through shared standards.
The core document for this repository is the Code of Conduct. It outlines our expectations for behavior and serves as the foundation for a welcoming environment.
