Our community enables UEFI firmware and tools through various open source projects. Most of our efforts are currently related to the EDK II project, so if you are developer, then this is a good place to start contributing to our community.

UEFI developers are the primary focus of our community, but if you are interested in trying to use UEFI, then we have a page on how to start using UEFI.

There are several ways to participate in our community. Anyone can join our Mailing Lists to discuss UEFI related topics.

If you are a developer, and would like to make Code Contributions to our community:

• Review our Member Types which documents requirements for contributing code
• Review our Tasks page which documents some open projects
• Review our Code Style page which documents coding styles and commit log styles
• Review our Inclusive Language Guidelines page which documents banned words and recommended substitutions
• Review our secure coding documents prior to submitting a patch, along with creating a unit test and performing some static analysis
• Recommend following some of the practices at https://google.github.io/eng-practices/review/reviewer/
• Do not post a patch to an unmitigated security issue. Instead follow guidelines at https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Reporting-Security-Issues
• If a proposed set of patches also requires a change to UEFI or other industry standard specifications, then use the EDK II Code First Process.
