Contribution Guidelines

How you can help the community grow, whether by helping members or creating exclusive content.

Two Paths to Contribute

First of all: Thank you for your interest! Dark Stack is built by you.

There are two main ways to contribute to the community:

Community Participation (Free): Help other members, give feedback, report bugs, and be a positive presence.
Content Creation (Subscriber): Use the platform's tools to publish articles, create courses, submit challenges, and more.

Let's detail each one:

1. Community Participation (Free Plan)

This is the foundation of Dark Stack. All members, including those on the Free Plan, are essential to keeping the community alive and welcoming. You can:

Help in the Forums: Answer questions, react to posts, and share solutions.
Give Feedback: Saw a cool project or article? Leave a constructive comment.
Report Bugs: Found a problem on the platform? Let the moderation team know.
Browse and Learn: Consume available content, such as challenges and courses, for your own growth.

2. Content Creation (Subscriber Plan)

To keep the platform healthy, with unlimited resources and no ads, we centralize **creation** features as the main benefit of the Subscriber Plan.

As a Subscriber, you not only financially support the community, but also gain the tools to build your reputation and share your knowledge at scale.

This includes (but is not limited to):

Forum Creation: Start new discussions and topics.
Course and Article Publishing: Share your knowledge in unlimited long-form content.
Challenge Submission: Actively participate and submit your solutions for UI/UX and other challenges.
Unlimited Repositories: Create and host as many projects as you want, with no size limits.
Early Access: See and test our Roadmap features before everyone else.

To see the full list of benefits, see our plans page (coming soon).

3. Open-Source Contribution (GitHub)

Finally, if you're a dev and want to help build the platform itself (fix bugs in the source code, propose features), the process follows the standard open-source workflow:

Find our repositories on GitHub (link coming soon).
Open an "Issue" to discuss the bug or feature.
Follow the Fork, Branch, Commit, and Pull Request flow.
This type of contribution is voluntary and not directly tied to Subscription Plans.
