Support the Zulip project
{!supporting-zulip-motivation.md!}
The Zulip community (which includes you!) is a huge part of what makes Zulip successful. If you appreciate Zulip, there are many different ways you can support the project. Some of these will only take a few minutes of your time, but still make a big difference.
-
Support Zulip financially: Sponsoring Zulip helps fund free Zulip Cloud Standard hosting for hundreds of open source projects, research communities, and other worthy organizations.
-
Help others find Zulip: As a business that's growing sustainably without venture capital funding, Zulip cannot afford splashy ad campaigns to compete with giant corporations like Salesforce (Slack) and Microsoft (Teams). Zulip depends on users and other members of the community to spread the word about the difference that using Zulip's organized team chat has made for you or your organization.
-
Help improve Zulip: Zulip is developed by a vibrant open-source community, and there are many ways to contribute even without writing a single line of code.
