If you are here, you will probably know ROCm provides a rich parallel computation foundation with the support of a diverse set of high-level programming languages (C, C++, OpenCL, Python, etc.) creating a solid foundation for heterogeneous computing.
One of biggest contributions you can give is reporting issues, please use our bug reporting guide. Thanks in advance!
ROCm Software Platform and core ROCm Server drive is an expansive set of projects, the most prominent of which are maintained by The AMD ROCm Project Developers on GitHub. Newcomers may be interested in the aim of the project may find out more on how to contribute, which explains the mechanism of contributing to ROCm Project.

- Community building. Helping your fellow ROCer, and expanding the reach of ROCm.
- Extending ROCm tooling in debugging, profiling, languages; integrating IDEs; and helping on infrastructure. The important pieces that make using a ROCm Software Platform practical and painless.
- Libraries. ROCm has started from solid foundation of Libraries. However we need help in growing beyond the current core set.
- Language, compiler and the standard library. Language design, feature implementation, performance improvement.
- Developer - someone who downloads, builds and includes HSA open source technology in their application, and may also submit enhancement/feature requests or bugs
- Contributor - someone who submits a code patch, documentation, software examples, bugs etc.
