==Introduction==
The Webmaker Product is made up of a set of web sites, REST APIs, web-based tools, and many node.js and browser JavaScript libraries. Users tend to think of it as the https://webmaker.org web site, but this is only the tip of the iceberg.
 
==Communication==
* '''IRC''': The [irc://irc.mozilla.org/webmaker #webmaker] channel on moznet is our primary dev channel.  If you're new to irc, please see the [[Irc|docs on learning how to use it]].
* '''Mailing Lists''': There are two primary lists: [https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/webmaker webmaker@lists.mozilla.org] for general Webmaker communication; and [https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/webmaker-dev webmaker-dev@mozilla.org] for developer communication.
* '''Bug Tracker''': We use Mozilla's Bugzilla to track our work, see the [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=productdashboard.html&tab=&product=Webmaker&bug_status=open Webmaker Product in Bugzilla].
* '''Blog''': Updates about the development of the Webmaker Product go on our [http://webmakerv2.tumblr.com Webmaker blog].


==Development==
== Weekly Status ==
Like all Mozilla products, Webmaker is open source and open to community participation.  Since its first release, Webmaker development has included students and non-Mozilla employees in all aspects of the project.  We believe in community-based product development, mentorship, and the value of a diverse contributor pool.  If you'd like to join our team of developers and designers, please see the [[Webmaker/Product/Dev|Webmaker Dev]] docs.


There is also a weekly triage session to go over all open, unassigned bugs. For more information on this, please see the [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Webmaker/Triage Webmaker Triage] page.

Webmaker is for everyone, no matter where what language they speak.  We're dedicated to shipping Webmaker in as many languages and locales as possible.  In the fall of 2013 [http://vocamus.net/dave/?p=1622 we shipped our first localized versions of Webmaker], and we're continuing to add support for more languages daily.  Webmaker localization is done using [https://www.transifex.com Transifex], see the [https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/webmaker/ Webmaker Transifex Project].  More details on how to get started localizing are available in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/translate-webmaker this SUMO article].
