Carbon Code of Conduct

This is a place to ask questions, work through any challenges, and share ideas and best practices. The following suggestions and guidelines are intended to make the community easier and more enjoyable to use.

TLDR;

  • Be respectful & understanding. Not all of us will agree all the time, but disagreement is no excuse for poor behavior or poor manners. It is important that we resolve disagreements and differing views constructively.
  • Be welcoming. We strive to be a community that welcomes and supports people of all backgrounds and identities.

General

Communication through any of Carbon's channels (GitHub, emails, Twitter, Slack) must be constructive and never resort to personal attacks, trolling, public or private harassment, insults, or other unprofessional conduct.

We promise to extend courtesy and respect to everyone involved in this project, regardless of gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, race, ethnicity, religion, or level of experience. We expect anyone contributing to Carbon to do the same.

If any member of the community violates this Code of Conduct, the maintainers of Carbon may take action, including removing issues, comments, and PRs or blocking accounts, as deemed appropriate.

If you are subjected to or witness unacceptable behavior, or have any other concerns, please communicate with us directly via carbon@us.ibm.com.

Slack

  1. Please, no @here or @channel unless it is a bug that is breaking production code. We have communities in many different time zones, and we would hate to disrupt someone not at the office.
  2. There's no need to notify the Carbon team that you have made an issue in Carbon's GitHub repositories. We check these several times a day, so we promise we'll address your issue as soon as we can.
  3. Reserve direct messages for sensitive discussions, such as privacy, legal, or HR reasons. Otherwise, we encourage posting in public channels so people with the same questions can benefit.
  4. If you have a pressing bug fix, it is best to make a PR directly to get your issues addressed.
  5. #carbon-components: This channel is for questions about Carbon Components only. It is not the place to ask general coding questions. Instead, use a dev community like StackOverflow.
  6. #carbon-design-system: Please post any design questions with an in-context screen shot (i.e. screen shot of the whole UI you are designing) with background as to what you are trying to accomplish in this flow. We welcome in-progress work to get community design feedback as well.

If you have suggestions to improve this Code of Conduct, please submit an issue or PR.

This Code of Conduct was adopted from the Angular Project and Todo Open Code of Conduct.
