Kong Community Code of Conduct
Kong community-focused programs seek to provide a collaborative environment for users, developers, solution architects, and other community members to learn not only how to be successful when leveraging Kong, but also in becoming Kong experts. Kong Community programs include, but are not limited to: Kong contributor programs, local Meetups, forums, slack channels, champion program, live streams, social media, any comments in Kong channels, and any other public or virtual event organized by Kong.
In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, the Kong Community team pledges to make participation in our programs and our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
