Read the User Guide and the Handbooks
We do mean all of it! The user guide was built by the community for the community. It has valuable resources for everyone to understand every component of our community-driven ecosystem. Start here to get started with the user guide and explore the areas of teamwork.
Join Community Onboarding
We host community onboarding calls every week to invite new members aboard. Hear the basics about our community, why we exist, how we started, and how you can get going (just like in this handbook!) RSVP for a community onboarding call here.
Join Discord
We make it easy for people to get started with our online community in Discord. We've made a lot of video tutorials for people to learn how to operate with our community in Discord, so learn more in the tutorials we've made. When you are ready, join Discord for Tech Fleet here.
Observe Teams
Everyone starts in this community by watching teams work so that they understand how to be a teammate in the real world. We recommend being an observer for one entire sprint, or two weeks, while you watch one project or many project teams. Learn more in the Observer Handbook.
Joining Teamwork
After you've completed the previous steps, read this handbook to learn how to participate in the different types of teamwork that this offers.
