Community

The one thing we love more than anything else at Jaspersoft is the ability of a successful open source project to aggregate people and build a community. Without the contribution of each single member, we would probably not have iReport, JasperReports, and JasperServer today.

JasperForge.org is the center of the Jaspersoft community and provides all the tools you need to get more involved in our projects. Based on your skills and your time, there are many ways you can contribute to the iReport project. Thousands of people across the globe will benefit from your contributions.

Start with a simple question: "How would I improve iReport to make it better and easier to use?"
We would love to hear your answer, and in the mean time we can suggest what you can do to make this happens.

Get Involved!

Whether you are a Java developer, a graphic artist, a writer, or just a simple user, there is a way you can help make iReport better. Read how!

Ask the iReport Forum

Post your questions about using iReport here. Skilled users will help you to get started. If you are already an experienced user you can share your knowledge with the other community members.

Check the Roadmap

The iReport roadmap is strongly influenced by the community. By logging bugs or feature requests into the system and by voting on existing trackers, you can help plan our next round of bug fixes or improvements. More about the roadmap here.

Write Some Code

The plug-in development section explains how to download the latest iReport source code and compile iReport. There, you will find coding guidelines and tutorials to get you started on iReport development. Not a programmer? You can still help translate iReport into your language.

If you don't have an account on JasperForge.org yet, it's free and easy, so create one now!
You will be able to post on the forum, report bugs, and access the SVN repository to download the most recent iReport source code.
