The EWC Community Hub grows through the contributions of our members.
If you’ve built an Item—whether it’s an Ansible Playbook, Terraform Module, Helm Chart, or a combination—you can share it with the community so others can benefit.

The contribution process is simple and transparent:

  1. Propose your item by submitting its metadata

  2. Get it reviewed by EWC administrators

  3. Have it listed in the Hub dashboard

  4. Promote and monitor it with the community

The diagram below shows the full journey from idea to published item:
