Come aboard
Whether you want to ship code, chat in real time, ask a quiet question, or reach out about a commercial engagement — here is every way to get in touch with the Bowire crew.
Why it’s worth being on deck
What you get out of actually being part of the crew — not just a GitHub star in a pile.
-
Your input moves the roadmap.
Bowire is small enough that a protocol gap flagged in Discord can land in the next review — not in six months.
-
Bugs get a human reply.
No auto-responses, no template close. Open an issue and somebody on the crew actually reads it.
-
Contributors are named.
Every release credits the people who shipped the fixes and features inside it — whether that’s one line of CSS or a whole protocol plugin.
Where the crew hangs out
Three places, all on GitHub. Contribute work, keep an ear to the rigging, or ask a question.
Report a bug, propose a feature, or send a pull request. The contributor guide covers the dev setup and coding conventions.
Star the repo to bookmark it, watch releases for version drops, or follow the roadmap to see what's in the pipeline.
Real-time chat with the crew. Bowire lives on the shared Küstenlogik server alongside Surgewave and the other coast-side dev tools — pick the channel that matches what you came for and you'll land in it the moment you join.
Prefer async over chat? Open a GitHub Discussion, or file a question-labelled issue if Discussions aren't enabled yet.
Activity on deck
Who’s aboard right now, and what the crew has been shipping. The cadence is small but real — the “last release” line below is the honest signal.

Fixes — A patch release rolling up four workbench fixes surfaced during v2.2.0 hands-on testing. No API, package, or wire changes — workspaces, collections, recordings and flows load identically. The split JSON | Map…

Highlights — v2.2 turns Bowire from "drive a call and look at the response" into a real **testing tool**. A flow can now carry **assertions**; `bowire test` runs those flows headless and emits **JUnit / SARIF / HTML** so a…
