CiviCRM online community: the geeky side

Hey, I forgot to mention one more great online community resource, especially if you're the slightest bit technical:

“CiviCRM GitLab” (lab.civicrm.org).

This is CiviCRM’s online repository for code development, bug reports, and community planning.

Even if you're not a software developer, this is still a great resource for learning about new feature improvements and new bug fixes that are in the works — or completed.

And you don't have to be super technical to file a bug report either. If you're sure that CiviCRM should be behaving in a certain way and isn't, there may be an existing bug report that you can add to, or you can create one yourself.

Ultimately CiviCRM is just a bunch of code files.

Peeking into that world now and then is like learning a little more about your car’s engine or your household plumbing:

You don't always have to be the one to pull out the tools, but it can help to have some idea what's up when it's acting strangely.

All the best,
A.
