contributors, with the most varied and diverse backgrounds possible. as such, we
are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all.

any project in github/gitea spaces and as well as for any service on envs.
# envs.net mission
envs.net exists to foster an engaged community for socializing,
learning, and making cool stuff
in a mass-media age, it is up to small, intentional communities to gather and
work together to provide a space outside of the advertising-laden,
profit-seeking, corporate-owned world of social media.
to that end, envs.net strives to be a radically inclusive community where people
of all backgrounds and all technological experience levels can come together to
learn, to teach, and to delight in one another’s creations.
