# GNU social Developer's handbook
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The book in your hands was written to teach you
|
||||||
|
the art of contributing to the GNU social codebase.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It starts by introducing the Modules system and architecture,
|
||||||
|
then the plugin development process and finally the exciting internals
|
||||||
|
of GNU social for those looking forward to make the most advanced contributions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# What you need to dive in
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At least a webserver such as [nginx](https://nginx.org/) and a DBMS such as [postgresql](https://www.postgresql.org/).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Depending on what you want to do, you may want to setup a queues (and caching) system such as [redis](https://redis.io/).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To learn how to set all of that up, you may refer to the [System Administrator's handbook](/administrator).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Understand that this book assumes prior programming knowledge, if that doesn't sound like you, refer to our [study
|
||||||
|
resources](https://www.gnusocial.rocks/soc/study_resources.html) to get started.
|
||||||
|

||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The [Designer](/designer) one is an in-depth overview of the design motifs, and the design language used. Useful for creating new plugins and help as a basis for new themes.
