Want to help out? Fork the project and check out the Contributing Code to iNaturalist. If you hit problems getting set up, post in our Github discussions. This will ping our engineering team and someone will get back to you. We're a small team, so response might be slow.
Thinking about running your own version of iNaturalist? Consider joining the iNaturalist Network instead of forking the community.
