Open Source
We understand that AuthZed's product suite will not satisfy all use cases and, for that reason, we've built and continue to invest in an open-source community around SpiceDB.
Community support is available to absolutely everyone and does not require any form of payment or usage of AuthZed products.
Discord (opens in a new tab) is the first line of support for asking questions or getting help with SpiceDB in real time. GitHub Discussions (opens in a new tab) is also available for asynchronous questions. For bug reports, feature requests, and development discussion, GitHub Issues (opens in a new tab) are available to all for participation.
The community encompasses not only folks paid to contribute, but maintainers and end-users volunteering their time to answer your questions.
Please be respectful and read over the community Code of Conduct (opens in a new tab) before interacting.
