<h1 id="getting-help-with-astropy">Getting Help with Astropy<a class="paralink" href="#getting-help-with-astropy" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
<p>The best way to get help is usually by asking questions to the Astropy user
and development community. There are several very active forums and you are
welcome to use whichever one you are the most comfortable with.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://community.openastronomy.org/c/astropy/8" title="">Open Astronomy Discourse</a> - This forum allows
questions to be tagged by topic, is searchable on Google, and displays
code snippets better than some of our current alternatives. We plan to
redirect user questions from Slack, Twitter, and mailing lists to this
new site. Please head over and ask (and answer) questions.</li>
<li><a href="https://twitter.com/astropy">@astropy on Twitter</a> - Mention
@astropy in a tweet with your question. Your tweet may be re-tweeted in
order to reach the relevant community. Many tweets get responses within a
few hours.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/astropython/">Python Users in
Astronomy Facebook group</a> - Post questions or start discussions on
anything related to Python programming applied to astronomy. This is a
closed group. If your request to join is not approved after a couple days,
please message one of the <a
href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/astropython/admins/">admins</a> with a
brief description of your involvement in astronomy. This is a very active
group and is the best place to get help. Most posts get responses within a few hours.
</li>
<li><a href="http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/astropy">Users Email
List</a> - Post questions or start discussions about anything related to
Python programming applied to astronomy. This is an active email list and
most posts get a response within a few days.</li>
<li> <a href="https://astropy.slack.com">Astropy Slack team</a> (<a
href="http://joinslack.astropy.org">get an account</a>) - Some developers and
contributors use Slack for everyday discussions. Feel free to use this
forum if you have any questions about contributing to Astropy. The best place to ask questions about how to use Astropy is the
<a href="https://community.openastronomy.org/c/astropy/8" title="">Open Astronomy Discourse</a> server.
Please browse all the available channels before posting and try to choose the most
relevant one.
</li>
<li> <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/astropy-dev">Developer Email
List [astropy-dev]</a> - Start discussion and ask questions about changing or adding
functionality to the <code>astropy</code> package. This is also the place where significant
announcements for contributors/developers are usually made. If you would like to
participate in discussion about how the Project is run,
please join this list.
