## Other FAQ
### Can I Invite a Friend?
Please bring it up in Discord so I (@mitchellh) can personally invite them.
But generally, yes! We'd rather have friends or people we know involved
in testing early on rather than strangers (although, happy to meet you!).
So if you have a friend that is interested and you think would be a great
addition, please let me know.
### I want to help, what can I work on?
I'd really love that, I want to foster a healthy contributing community
with Ghostty over time, and I really appreciate the help.
Take a look at the issues list. Feel free to suggest new things. If you
have a favorite feature from some other terminal emulator, let's build it!
My only ask is that for big features, please ask the Discord first to gauge
interest/acceptance for it before opening up some huge PR.
There are also non-core help we can use: docs, website work, Discord bots,
etc. etc. For example, a web UI to generate a configuration file would be
cool. Or a web UI to preview your color settings.
### Is Ghostty Open Source?
Right now technically not (no license file). But yes, it will be full
open source (by the OSI definition). I'm not sure what license to choose
yet, leaning towards going with GPL for this project but open to ideas.
We will add a license prior to opening up the repository. During the private
beta period, I'll continue with a no license project.
