Open source is more than code—it's co-creation, trust, and building for the future together. This document outlines our approach to building sustainable open source infrastructure for the XRP Ledger ecosystem.
To accelerate XRP Ledger adoption by providing world-class open source tools, education, and sustainable funding for builders.
We focus on infrastructure that benefits the entire ecosystem—tools that any developer can use, documentation that anyone can learn from, and funding that recognizes contribution to the commons.
All development happens in the open. Roadmaps, discussions, and decisions are visible to everyone. Transparency builds trust and invites collaboration.
We prioritize the needs of the broader XRPL ecosystem over any single stakeholder. Tools are built to empower developers, not to create dependencies.
All projects use permissive licenses (MIT, Apache 2.0) to maximize adoption and minimize friction. Fork freely, build freely.
Comprehensive documentation is not optional. Every project ships with guides, examples, and API references maintained alongside the code.
Through Glow and community grants, we ensure contributors are compensated fairly. Open source work deserves recognition and support.
