Community

Everything for the 5G-MAG developer community in one place: how to use this documentation, contributing guidelines, releases, pull requests, activity stats, and the roadmap.

Getting Started

• Using this Documentation — how this portal is structured, and a suggested workflow for finding your way around it.
• How to Contribute — raising issues, forking the project, and opening a pull request.
• Release Process & Branching Strategy — testing release candidates and our Gitflow-based branching model.

A signed Contributor License Agreement (CLA) is required before any code can be merged — see Open-Source Software Licenses.
