Working Groups
Driving the future of Quarkus.
A working group is a small team of contributors collaborating on a specific topic or initiative within the Quarkus ecosystem. Each group drives progress in a focused area, such as new features, tools, or long-term improvements.
Joining a working group is a great way to get involved and help shape the future of Quarkus. If you're interested in participating, check the group's board or contact its point of contact.
You can also propose a new working group by opening a design discussion using the working group proposal template.
