Welcome to the Stargate community!

The Stargate project was open-sourced in September 2020 as a data gateway inspired by engineers at Netflix, Yelp, Instagram, and other companies that were building Data Gateway APIs on top of Apache Cassandra and other open-source data infrastructure. As a growing community, we're here to explore new ways to interact with data at scale and have some fun along the way. We build in the open and use the channels below for communication.

Nothing makes us happier than community contributions. See the README in the main stargate repository to get a grasp of the project layout and reference the CONTRIBUTING.md file for detailed steps.

Acceptance of the DataStax contributor license agreement (CLA) is required in order for us to be able to accept your code contribution. You will see this on the standard pull request checklist for the Stargate repositories.

If you're interested in contributing but don't know where to start, we also recommend looking for a good first issue in the main repository.
