Fastcode is an open-source community dedicated to advancing software performance engineering (SPE) -- making software run fast or otherwise consume few resources such as time, storage, and energy.
Welcoming your participation
Whether you're just curious about SPE or a leading expert, Fastcode welcomes your participation. Here are some ways to get involved.
Four pillars
Fastcode activity is loosely organized by four "pillars":
- Technology: improving the tools that people use for SPE
- Research: supporting the development of SPE as a principled scientific field
- Education: making it easier for instructors to teach SPE
- Skill-building: providing places for hands-on practicing of SPE skills.
Managing organization
The Fastcode managing organization is responsible for catalyzing distributed, community-driven development and growth of the Fastcode open-source ecosystem.
