Join the Open Nexus Community

Why join?

Open Nexus is an ambitious, open-source operating system built in Rust on a Redox microkernel. The community is where ideas become designs, and designs become code. Whether you write Rust or not, you can help shape an open ecosystem that puts people — not platforms — first.

• Be part of a global movement for an open, privacy-first ecosystem
• Help define the experience across mobile, desktop, and IoT
• Get early access to plans, prototypes, and community events

Not a developer? Still essential.

• Testing & feedback — try builds, file issues, influence priorities
• Design reviews — UX/UI critique, copy, accessibility checks
• Docs & translations — make the project easier to use worldwide
• Advocacy — share the vision, invite partners, grow the ecosystem

Join our Discord

Serious work, friendly tone. Discord is where decisions take shape, demos happen, and new contributors get onboarded.

Community values

• Open by default — decisions and designs in the open
• Respect — inclusive, welcoming, and constructive
• Quality — steady progress over hype; ship in slices
