Start with these routes
Open development, practical scope
art.kubus develops parts of its cultural infrastructure in the open so the community can inspect, discuss and improve tooling. Open source is a practical commitment to transparency, not a promise that every service or private system is public.
How to contribute
Community contribution can include code, documentation, issue reports, translations, map markers and editorial corrections. GitHub is the place for published repositories and technical collaboration, while cultural contributions can also happen through the app.
Why openness matters for culture
Open-source cultural infrastructure helps public art records, map tools and archive workflows outlive a single product cycle. It also makes the boundaries of public data, private data and experimental features easier to inspect.
kubus Node for archive availability
kubus Node is the open operator runtime for public art archive replication and verified availability reporting. It supports pending contribution records, not live payouts or investment claims.
Frequently asked questions

Do you accept pull requests?
Yes for public repositories. Contributions should be focused, well-documented, and aligned with the platform’s accessibility, SEO, and consent rules.
Is everything in the art.kubus stack public?
