How to contribute to Jetpack Compose?

Viewed 1067

In this blog, Tech Crunch says,

Google launches Jetpack Compose, an open-source, Kotlin-based UI development toolkit

This means JetPack Compose is an open-source framework (obviously). Then... where's the source code for Jetpack Compose? And how can someone contribute to it?

I searched for the same on the internet but found nothing. Any leads would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

You can check out this contributing guide and here's the compose source code: https://github.com/androidx/androidx/tree/androidx-main/compose. Note that not all libraries from Android are open for outside contribution AFAIK, but you can definitely contribute to the Compose compiler.

Yigit recently answered a related question on I/O 21. As a summary: they plan on opening up libraries so that everyone can contribute, but it has an effect on their regular development processes.

Also, here is the androidx github repo: https://github.com/androidx/androidx
