The Plakar community is committed to providing a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive environment for everyone. We value contributions from all members of the community and are dedicated to ensuring that every participant can collaborate openly and effectively. This Code of Conduct outlines our expectations for behavior and guides our commitment to an open, collaborative, and respectful space.

Our Standards

    • Treat others with kindness, empathy, and respect, regardless of their background or identity.
    • Respect differing viewpoints and experiences, and be considerate when providing feedback.

  2. Be Constructive

    • Provide constructive criticism and feedback that helps others grow. Avoid personal attacks or inflammatory language.
    • Encourage and support newcomers, providing guidance and assistance to those who need it.

  3. Focus on Technical Merit

  4. Communicate Clearly and Honestly
