Contribute

Help build Galileo.

You can help today with code, documentation, testing, or useful feedback. We plan to open financial sponsorship later, after the organization is ready to manage it properly.

Ways to contribute

Two ways to support the project.

Technical contributions are open now. Financial sponsorship is planned, but not active yet.

Open now

Contribute code

Help with the website, documentation, testing, issue investigation, or a clearly scoped piece of implementation work. Start with an issue, pull request, or a short introduction in Discussions.

Planned

Fund the work

Future sponsorship will help pay for build infrastructure, test hardware, compatibility work, release services, and the time needed to maintain the project. We are not accepting payments yet.

Where funding would go

What sponsorship would pay for.

Before sponsorship opens, we will publish who receives the money, how spending is approved, and how we report it.

01

Build & test infrastructure

CI capacity, test services, and the storage needed to keep results reproducible.

02

Compatibility & quality

Test hardware, platform coverage, and time to investigate browser failures properly.

03

Release services

Domains, distribution, code signing, security review, and release documentation.

04

Engineering time

Implementation, review, documentation, contributor support, and routine maintenance.

Stewardship

Simple rules for handling project money.

Use the organization

The recipient and payout route will be public before we accept any payments.

Report what we spend

We will publish useful summaries of income, expenses, and important changes to the plan.

No paid control

Sponsorship will not buy equity, technical control, or a promised release date.

Code contributions are open. GitHub Sponsors will be added only after the organization, payout details, and reporting process are ready. It will be project sponsorship—not a donation, investment, or purchase.
