Join the Contributor Week
After the 2-day Nextcloud Community Conference, we continue with our famous Contributor Week! From Monday to Thursday we collaborate on Nextcloud improvements in design, functionality, stability, performance and features. It is a unique opportunity for developers to dive deep into the codebase, exchange ideas, and work closely with other Nextclouders.
The atmosphere is vibrant and collaborative, fostering an environment of learning, growth, and innovation. By the end of the week, participants not only have gained invaluable experience but also made significant contributions to the Nextcloud project, helping to shape its future.
Contributor Week at the Nextcloud Community Conference is a celebration of open-source collaboration, fostering a strong sense of community and collective effort. 🫂
We share code, thoughts, inspiration, beer and knowledge, working in areas like:
- Coding (PHP, JS, C++, Objective-C, Java)
- Design & Front-end
- Testing
- Translation & Documentation
- And more!

Supporting diversity in open source!
Diversity strengthens a community. The Nextcloud Include initiative helps underrepresented groups to join the Nextcloud project, building an inclusive and diverse space where we collaborate and develop world-class software.
We want to support participants from underrepresented groups in Open Source to join Nextcloud Community Conference by sponsoring part or the whole of their transportation and accommodation costs.
