Prometheus is developed in the open and has a growing community outside of SoundCloud. Here are some of the channels we use to communicate and contribute:
Mailing list: prometheus-developers Google Group
Twitter: PrometheusIO
IRC: #prometheus on irc.freenode.net
Issue tracker: We use the GitHub issue tracker for the various Prometheus repositories
We welcome community contributions! Please see the
CONTRIBUTING.md file in the respective Prometheus repository
for instructions on how to submit changes. If you are planning on making
more elaborate or controversial changes, please discuss them on the mailing
list before sending a pull request.
Prometheus was initially started by Matt T. Proud and Julius Volz. The majority of its development has been sponsored by SoundCloud.
We would also like to acknowledge early contributions by engineers from Docker and Boxever.
The Prometheus logo was contributed by Robin Greenwood.
