The purpose of our slack group is to:
- Help new Roku developers with programming problems
- Share patterns, information, ideas and advice
- Help debug each other's code
- Talk about open source projects that we are involved in
- Find resources to work with
- Be an extra pair of eyes when everything is going wrong
However, we must stress:
- Never discuss anything from Roku's beta programs — Including new features, bugs your experiencing, or the release cadence. Members of the beta programs have signed NDAs prohibiting them from discussing the program outside the designated forum
- The group is not officially supported or endorsed by Roku.
- The group is not a replacement for the forums at : https://forums.roku.com/viewforum.php?f=34
- While the group does have some roku staff members who graciously take some of their time to answer questions. They are not acting in any official capacity, and we ask that group member's respect their time.
We ask that all members adhere to the following:
- Never discuss the Roku private betas
- Do not share NDA code/anything that is not yours to share
- Do not use bad language
- Be civil with one another
- Use snippets for large code blocks
- Use proper slack formatting (learn it here): https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/202288908-Format-your-messages
- Be friendly and helpful, and patient with other members of the group
- NEVER spam other member's or send unsolicited pms
- Peruse the documentation at: https://sdkdocs.roku.com/display/sdkdoc/Roku+SDK+Documentation
- Familiarize yourself with the dev tools at: https://devtools.web.roku.com/
