This year, one of our highest priorities has been to create a central hub for the MUI community.
|
|||
|
|
Up until now, our community has been scattered across discussions and interactions on [X](https://x.com/MUI_hq), [LinkedIn](https://linkedin.com/company/mui), [GitHub](https://github.com/mui), and [Stack Overflow](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/material-ui).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
That's why we've officially launched our [Discord Server](https://mui.com/r/discord/)—and we'd love for you to be a part of our community!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Come join to engage in lively discussions, share your projects, and interact with the MUI team as well as developers just like you from all around the world.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Why you should join our Discord Server?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
There are a plethora of reasons why you should join, but here are the three biggest benefits:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. **Real-time communication with our community**:
|
|||
|
|
As mentioned above, our communication with the community has often been slow and _scattered_ across too many different platforms.
|
|||
|
|
Developers are frequently unsure whether to open an issue on GitHub, tweet at us, or send us an email when they have a question or want to share feedback.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
_Discord provides real-time chat capabilities_, allowing you to communicate and collaborate with us and other developers, instantly.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
What's a better way to get a real-time response from the MUI team and other users?!
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
2. **Community building**:
|
|||
|
|
Discord is a great place for us to get together and chat!
|
|||
|
|
For so long, there wasn't a way for us to get together.
|
|||
|
|
We have big plans to set up events such as hack-a-thons, monthly office hours with our Developer Advocates, speaking events with MUI founders, and the list goes on.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
3. **Networking and collaboration opportunities**:
|
|||
|
|
We want this to be a safe place where you can join, have fun, and meet new people.
|
|||
|
|
Someone is out there using this same tool as you.
|
|||
|
|
We created two awesome channels to help you find work opportunities (and we can always create more—just let us know what you need)!
|
|||
|
|
1. 🎨 │ Show-Off
|
|||
|
|
- Show off your project built with one of the MUI's open source projects! Get wild. Ask questions.
|
|||
|
|
Or use this channel simply to boast. 😉
|
|||
|
|
2. 📝 │ Freelance
|
|||
|
|
- Looking for some help on completing your vision?
|
|||
|
|
Use this channel to find work or market yourself for work.
|
|||
|
|
There are thousands of developers, designers, and teams using MUI.
|
|||
|
|
You're bound to find someone to help you complete your project.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Chat with you soon
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Overall, we're super excited to have you join our community.
|
|||
|
|
Come show off your projects, introduce yourself in the **"👋 | new-members"** channel, or just ask general questions in the forums.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As always, we would love to hear from you.
|
