A community is a group of people linked by social ties who share common perspectives and engage in joint action. A tech community brings together like-minded individuals to learn, build, connect, and help each other progress. Community members are responsible for running the community's affairs by upholding its dignity, participating in activities, and convincing others to join. As a member, one can provide learning guidelines, access opportunities, create mentorship relationships, solve local problems, and engage others through workshops. Members benefit by meeting people outside their network, gaining advice from experts, collaborating, learning new technologies, and building camaraderie.
