This organisation was created to allow users to post ideas about crystal libraries, but don't really know where to start. It's also created to help developers find interesting projects to work on and help the crystal community the same time.
If you have an idea for a shard, create an issue for it here
Try to find people that are also interested on working on the library
Once a developer has agreed to take on the project, they can request a repo under the crystal-community repository.
If you want to develop your own library and add that to the crystal-community, you can just create an issue for it.
- All code must be properly licensed and free to use (MIT, BSD, etc.)
- The project must be useful to the community (This is debatable of course, but for example a command line nyan-cats shard is not really benificial to the community ;-))
- The project must have a maintainer, if a project can't find a maintainer anymore, this should be stated in the description.
The crystal community is an initiative of the crystal community. Any questions, debates, disputes regarding issues about shards under this community should be held within the crystal community itself. The crystal-lang developers are not responsible for any decisions made by the crystal-community.
