Docker [introduced the open source Moby | ||
project](https://blog.docker.com/2017/04/introducing-the-moby-project/) to | ||
further promote collaboration, experimentation, and development of | ||
container-based systems in the broader community. Moby is a library of | ||
containerized components, a framework for assembling components into a container | ||
platform, and tools to build, test, and deploy artifacts. It included a | ||
reference assembly, which is the open base for the Docker platform. | ||
|
||
You can read about the Moby project, the open framework, components, and | ||
relationship of Docker to Moby at [mobyproject.org](https://mobyproject.org/). | ||
|
||
The Moby project lives [here](https://github.com/moby/moby). | ||
|
||
See [Contribute to the Moby | ||
project](https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) to learn how | ||
to help work on the codebase. |

Beyond the documentation contributions we cover here, there are many other ways | ||
to contribute to Docker. Whether you are just getting started or are expert in | ||
your field, you have a unique perspective that is a valuable resource to share | ||
with others. The Docker community, meetups, mentoring, and open source projects | ||
all need your participation, ideas, feedback, and vision. | ||

||
## Organize a Docker meetup | ||
|
||
Anyone interested in Docker can become an active member of the Docker community | ||
by becoming a co-organizer of a Docker Meetup group. | ||
|
||
If a Meetup group does not already exist in your area and you are willing to | ||
start a new one, the best way to proceed is to contact us so that we can create | ||
it for you. We will always agree to create a new Docker Meetup group as long as | ||
it makes sense geographically speaking. | ||
|
||
If you have already created a Docker Meetup group that is fine, we will simply | ||
ask you to add us as a co-organizer so that we can ensure a consistent support | ||
to the group in terms of community and Meetup management. | ||
|
||
Before contacting us to create a new Docker Meetup Group, take a look at our | ||
Meetup Groups page to make sure a group does not already exist in the area. | ||
|
||
### Get started putting on a Docker Meetup | ||
|
||
Now that you are a co-organizer of a Docker Meetup Group, here are a few tips and | ||
suggestions to help you get started: | ||
|
||
* Attend similar DevOps or Developers Meetups to gain experience and gauge interest in Docker | ||
* Contact other people interested in Docker to help you organize and promote future Meetups | ||
* Research High-Tech companies in your area willing to host a Docker Meetup event | ||
* Research what would be the best date(s) to schedule the Meetups based on availabilities with regard to competing events in the area and other calendar imperative | ||
* Research what are the topic of interest to your audience prior to set an agenda for the meetup | ||
* Pay attention to the Meetup page aesthetics, add logos and pictures, invite members to leave comments and reply to these comments | ||
* Promote the event on social media and make sure that the list of keywords is well define if you have created the Docker Meetup Group on your own | ||
|
||
### How Docker can help you organize | ||
|
||
We can support the co-organizers of the Docker Meetup Groups based on their specific needs. For instance, we might / will be able to: | ||
|
||
* Send you Docker T-shirts and stickers | ||
* Put you in contact with other people interested in being a co-organizer of a Docker Meetup group, and which are in the same area | ||
* Put you in contact with companies willing to host a Docker Meetup in your area | ||
* Introduce you to people willing to give a lightning talk about Docker | ||
* Promote your Docker Group on Docker.com, Docker Weekly and Social Media | ||

### Host a Docker meetup at your location | ||
|
||

|
||
### Want to host a Docker Meetup? | ||
|
||
We are always looking for new office space to host Docker Meetups. If your | ||
company is willing to host a Docker Meetup, please contact us by email at | ||
meetup@docker.com. Previous Docker Meetups have been hosted by companies such | ||
as Rackspace, Twitter, MongoDB, BrightCove, DigitalOcean, Viadeo and Edmodo. | ||
#### How many attendees? | ||
|
||
The company hosting the event fixes the number of attendees depending on their | ||
office size and availability. This number usually varies between 30 and 200. | ||
|
||
#### How long is a Docker Meetup? | ||
|
||
Once again, each company hosting the event decides when does the meetup start, | ||
and how long it lasts. Usual meetups tend to last 2 hours, and start between | ||
4pm and 6pm. | ||
|
||
## Learn about the Docker Community | ||
|
||
Go to the **[Docker Community GitHub | ||
repository](https://github.com/docker/community/blob/master/README.md){: | ||
target="_blank" class="_"}** for | ||
resources and information on the community. Those pages are the most | ||
up-to-date for finding out about the community and making connections. | ||
|
||
The topics below provide some additional links, but it's likely that everything | ||
you need will be on the GitHub repository. | ||
|
||
### Become a Mentor | ||
|
||
With millions of Docker users all over the world, there's always someone who | ||
needs a helping hand. Like many open source projects, the Docker project relies | ||
on community support channels like forums, IRC, and StackOverflow. You should | ||
contribute mentoring if you have good knowledge of: | ||
|
||
* how open source projects run | ||
* using Docker in some particular domain (for example, testing or deployment) | ||
* using Git, Go, GitHub, IRC, or other common tools | ||
|
||
Also, choose mentoring if you like to be happy. Studies show that [helping others](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/09/03/five-minute-favor-adam-rifkin_n_3805090.html){: target="_blank" class="_"} is a great way to | ||
boost your own well being. | ||
|
||
|
||
### Docker users | ||
|
||
Docker users are people using Docker in their daily work. To help Docker users, visit: | ||
|
||
* the [Docker Community Forum](https://forums.docker.com/){: target="_blank" class="_"} | ||
* the `#docker` channel on Freenode IRC | ||
* [StackOverflow](http://stackoverflow.com/search?tab=newest&q=docker){: target="_blank" class="_"} | ||
|
||
You can also check the lists of [open issues on the Docker docs](https://github.com/docker/docker.github.io/issues){: target="_blank" class="_"} and [open issues on the Moby project](https://github.com/moby/moby/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3Akind%2Fquestion+-label%3Astatus%2Fclaimed+-label%3Astatus%2Fassigned+no%3Aassignee){: target="_blank" class="_"}. | ||
|
||
|
||
### Docker contributors | ||
|
||
Docker contributors are people like you, interested in the open source projects | ||
and product documentation. Contributors may need help with IRC, Go programming, | ||
Markdown, or with other aspects of contributing. To help Docker contributors, | ||
visit: | ||
|
||
* the [Docker Gitter IM](https://gitter.im/docker/docker){: target="_blank" class="_"} room | ||
* the [Google group](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/docker-dev){: target="_blank" class="_"} | ||
* the `#docker-dev` channel on Freenode IRC | ||
