| The [[Open-Source Architecture Community]] brings together like-minded users and developers who share a common goal: that the built environment can be designed, constructed, operated, and recycled with '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_software free/libre software]''' and '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_source open-source software]''' with increased '''transparency''', and a more '''ethical''' approach.

<p style="font-size: 2rem; width: 80%; margin: 0px;">

We encourage the community to share what they're working on, use more free software in what is currently a proprietary-dominated market, and learn more about what's out there.
We help create the built environment with '''free software''', increased '''transparency''', and a more '''ethical''' approach.

<p style="margin-bottom: 0px;">On this wiki, we collect and share everything we know about the free technology in our industry. Every page on this website was written by people just like you.</p>

[[AEC Free Software directory|The AECO Free Software Directory]] is at the core of this project, enjoy browsing our directory for interesting solutions and let us know if you've overlooked anything.
  
Interested in OSArch initiatives, and why OSArch is so important to the design, construction, operation, and recycling of the built environment? See [[Open-Source Architecture Community|an introduction to what OSArch is all about]]. We are a strong and growing community.
+
[[AEC Open Data Standards Directory|Open Data Standards]] and their file formats allow different software packages to communicate, here's where you can read about them.
  
* Post questions in our [https://community.osarch.org/ Community Forum]
+
[[AEC Open Data directory|Open Data]] is great for testing and experimenting so we're collecting link to these resources.
* Meet us at our online [[Monthly Meetup]]
 
* [[Donation_Directory|Donate]] to sustain some of the project we support
 
* See and add yourself to our list of [[OSArch Supporters|OSArch supporter]]
 
* See [[AECO Workflow Examples|past projects]] using free software and see [[Featured images]]
 
* See more ways to [[How to contribute to OSArch|contribute to OSArch]]
 
  
Right now, we're looking in particular for volunteers to help with these things. If you're up for it, post on the forums and let us know!
+
[[Standards organizations]] play an important role in creating the [[AEC Open Data Standards Directory|Open Data Standards]] [[OpenBIM]] relies on
  
* We need people to [[Outreach|help get the word out]] and manage the OSArch accounts on [https://twitter.com/OSArchOrg Twitter], [https://www.linkedin.com/in/osarch-org-121505200/ LinkedIn], [https://fosstodon.org/web/accounts/331798 Mastodon account] & [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoP6n8DdDajAM8YYDdFpQMQ Youtube].
+
[[AEC academic paper directory|Academic Papers]] and [[AEC articles|articles]] out there can help you gain an understanding of the industry and where [[free software]] can play a role in [[AECO]]
* We need people to help [[OSArch Curriculum|design a curriculum]] to teach about AEC tools and OpenBIM concepts.
 
* We need help with important unfinished wiki pages. Anybody can edit!
 
* And help with developement! Drop by the [https://community.osarch.org/ community forum] or [https://osarch.org/chat/ chat] to learn what projects are being talked about right now.
