# Slipmat Development Process
Slipmat is developed with a very open process. The developer documentation (opens new window) explains everything in great detail but for most users there's justa couple of important things to know and follow: how to report issues and the roadmap.
NOTE
Slipmat is a community project. That means everyone in the Slipmat community can help and affect the development process.
# How To Report Issues
Everything related to Slipmat code lives on Slipmat GitLab (opens new window). You need to register a free GitLab account (opens new window) in order to report and follow issues.
