For over a decade, Great Scott Gadgets has been on a mission to put open-source tools into the hands of innovative people. We are committed to democratizing innovation by making all our software, firmware, gateware, and hardware designs free, accessible, and modifiable. As an open-source company, we depend on community participation to help us thrive!

If you appreciate the things we do here at Great Scott Gadgets and want to help us do more, there are several ways you can get involved:

Contribute to Projects

We welcome contributions from the community to our GitHub repositories, and your efforts can make a big difference in helping our small team achieve our goals! To contribute to projects you can:

• Report a bug

• Fix a bug

• Review a pull request

• Submit a pull request to add a new feature

• Suggest a feature

• Review and write documentation

• Write tutorials

You can also help out with user support by answering technical questions on GitHub or our Discord server.

Buy Great Scott Gadgets Hardware

We know we’re not the only manufacturer of our hardware designs, but when you choose to purchase Great Scott Gadgets hardware from one of our authorized resellers, you will

• get a product you know has been through rigorous factory testing and quality control

• benefit from the support and customer service our resellers provide in partnership with us.

The proceeds of that purchase go towards supporting our team, which is dedicated full-time to nurturing the health of the projects you care about. You can find a GSG authorized reseller near you here.

Sponsor us Financially on GitHub

The hardware, software, gateware, and firmware we create are free to use, copy, and modify under the terms of the open-source licenses of their respective projects, but developing and maintaining them isn’t! If you rely on our projects, consider showing your support through a monthly or one-time donation via our GitHub Sponsorship page. Your sponsorship will go directly toward supporting activities like:

• Adding new software features and improvements

• Producing educational content like user documentation, tutorials, and demos

• Research and development work, like URTI

• Developing new hardware platforms
