title: Introduction

KubeVela project is initialized and maintained by the cloud native community since day 0 with [bootstrapping contributors from 8+ different organizations](https://github.com/kubevela/community/blob/main/OWNERS.md#bootstrap-contributors). We intend for KubeVela to have an open governance since the very beginning and donate the project to neutral foundation as soon as it's released.
To help us create a safe and positive community experience for all, we require all participants adhere to the CNCF Community [Code of Conduct](https://github.com/cncf/foundation/blob/main/code-of-conduct.md).
This document is a guide to help you through the process of contributing to KubeVela.
## Become a contributor
You can contribute to KubeVela in several ways including code and non-code contributions,
we appreciate every effort you contribute to the community. Here are some examples:
* Contribute to the codebase and docs.
* Report and triage issues.

* Help others by answering questions about KubeVela.
### Non-code contribution
The Apache way says "Community Over Code". Although KubeVela is a CNCF/Linux project, we possess a strong resonance to it. To second and stretch this merit deeper, we regard non-coding contribution as equally important with code contribution for the community's very existence and its future growth.
