Community Standards

Where to get help and how to ask for it effectively.

Skyport is built in the open, and the project works best when reports, questions, and pull requests are clear and respectful.

Use the right channel for the right type of issue:

  • Discord for installation help, quick questions, and community discussion
  • GitHub Issues for reproducible bugs and feature requests
  • GitHub Pull Requests for code or documentation contributions

Please include:

  • the Skyport panel version
  • the skyportd version
  • your operating system and version
  • the steps required to reproduce the issue
  • relevant log output
  • whether the issue is panel-side, daemon-side, or both

When asking for help:

  • describe what you expected to happen
  • describe what actually happened
  • include exact error messages
  • paste commands and logs as code blocks
  • avoid screenshots of text when possible

Self-hosting software means some troubleshooting is expected. Before posting, make sure you have checked:

  • your reverse proxy configuration
  • your database and Redis connectivity
  • your daemon logs
  • whether your panel and daemon versions match

Documentation and code contributions are welcome. If you are submitting changes:

  • keep them focused
  • explain the problem being solved
  • include enough detail for maintainers to verify the change
