We act as liaisons between non-technical communities and developers, and we organize developer outreach programs and events.
The Developer Relations team supports software projects aiming to create and share free knowledge in the context of Wikimedia. Our primary focus are developers of MediaWiki extensions, apps, tools, gadgets, bots, templates, and other users of our APIs. We also engage with editors contributing technical feedback and documentation.
 
We are organized in two subteams based on primary audiences: Community Liaisons (editors) and Developer Relations (developers). We are part of the Community Engagement department.
