Open Source

We understand that AuthZed’s product suite will not satisfy all use cases and, for that reason, we’ve built and continue to invest in an open-source community around SpiceDB.

Community support is available to absolutely everyone and does not require any form of payment or usage of AuthZed products.

Discord  is the first line of support for asking questions or getting help with SpiceDB in real time. GitHub Discussions  is also available for asynchronous questions. For bug reports, feature requests, and development discussion, GitHub Issues  are available to all for participation.

The community encompasses not only folks paid to contribute, but maintainers and end-users volunteering their time to answer your questions.

Please be respectful and read over the community Code of Conduct  before interacting.
