This document outlines the core expectations and responsibilities for everyone participating on OnlyDust, and specifically our open-source week (ODHacks). Our aim is to provide a supportive, inclusive, and collaborative environment for open source contributors and maintainers alike.

Code of Conduct

1. Respect and Inclusivity

• Treat everyone with kindness, courtesy, and professionalism.
• Harassment, hate speech, discrimination, or any form of offensive or inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated.
• Offer feedback constructively and focus discussions on ideas, not individuals.

2. Fair Participation

• We advise contributors to work on one task per project at a time. If you undertake more than one issue per project, make sure you can deliver.
• Avoid claiming multiple issues simultaneously within the same project to ensure fair opportunities for all.
• Once your current task is complete and reviewed, you may request to be assigned another.

3. Integrity and Learning

• Avoid using AI tools like ChatGPT or other LLMs to solve tasks unless explicitly permitted by the project.
• The purpose of OnlyDust and the ODHacks is to explore, learn, and grow through real contribution—not shortcuts.
• Maintainers are here to support you, and active engagement is encouraged.

Participation Guidelines

Before the ODHack Begins

• All contributors must register on OnlyDust and sign up for the ODHack.
