Code of Conduct 

The Ansible Forum is the default and recommended starting point for most community interactions. It’s ideal for:

Explore forum groups that match your interests. Joining a group often automatically subscribes you to related posts.

The Bullhorn is our community’s weekly newsletter, published directly in the Forum:

For real-time interactions, the Ansible community uses the Matrix protocol.

Note

The Forum is our default communication platform. We recommend engaging there before considering other options like Matrix.

To join the community on Matrix:

Get a Matrix account: From Matrix.org or any other Matrix homeserver.
Choose a Matrix client: We recommend Element Webchat.
Join rooms: Use the links in the General channels or Working groups to join specific rooms.

For more information, see the community-hosted Matrix FAQ.

You can add Matrix shields to your repository’s README.md using the shield in the community-topics repository as a template.

Note

IRC channels are no longer official communication channels. Use the Forum and Matrix instead.
