### Code Repositories

Our [code is hosted on Github](http://github.com/coordinape/) in three separate repositories.

* [Frontend repo](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape)
* [Backend repo](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-backend)
* [Solidity / Protocols repo](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-protocol)

Each repository above includes a README.md in the root of the repo with instructions on getting that app running. Our current Coordinape app runs off-chain using the Frontend and Backend repos. Our solidity repo is under active development as we move Coordinape on-chain.

### Getting Started

To get your development environment started begin with following the [README](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape-backend/blob/main/README.md) in the Backend repo. Once the backend is up and running next follow the [README](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape/blob/master/README.md) the Frontend repo.

### Questions and Help

[Github Issues](https://github.com/coordinape/coordinape/issues) and [Discord](https://discord.coordinape.com) are the best places for the community to collaborate.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.coordinape.com/community/coordinape-community/contributing.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
