#FAQ

##What is CodeBuddies? We're a community of independent code learners who help each other on Slack, schedule hangouts to learn with each other, contribute to a periodic anonymous crowdsourced newsletter where anyone can share a personal project or leave a shout out, and post on Facebook. We come from all over the world; there are members living in the United States, Japan, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Russia, Australia, Canada, India, and more. We accept donations and are 100% transparent on Open Collective

Learning with each other helps us learn faster. We strive to create a safe space for anyone interested in code to talk about the learning process. The project is free and open-sourced on Github, and this app is 100% community/volunteer-built.

Join us on Slack! You can get your invite by clicking on the Slack invite button and join the community by verifying your invitation through your e-mail!

##Why are you building this site? Our community spends a lot of time helping each other on our public Slack (P.S. You can get an invite here if you want to join), but it's hard to schedule Google Hangout study times via Slack, and it's also hard to know who else is online and available for joining a Hangout to work on something together. The platform we're building solves those issues.

##How do I contribute to this project? PLEASE go to contributing.md and refer to the contribution steps listed there! There are also helpful resources there, in case you get stuck. To add yourself as a contributor, please see the How do I add myself as a contributor? section.

And here are the volunteers so far:

If you'd like to help contribute, pick out an issue (leave a comment on it to indicate your interest!) and say hello in the #codebuddies-meta channel on Slack. Be sure to read the "how do I contribute" instructions on contributing.md!

P.S. We'll schedule hangouts to do code walkthroughs or code show and tells occasionally, and announce it in the #codebuddies-meta channel on Slack. The goal is to help everyone who wants to contribute to this app learn quickly through collaboration. You can also request a code walkthrough as well. The list of contributors above contains a good mix of full-time developers and as well as people contributing to an open-sourced project for the first time.
