We created OpenNebula so that all developers can distribute their cloud tools and cloud enabled applications to users on an open platform. One of the best ways you can help OpenNebula is to write cool applications. There are several components to develop in the Cloud ecosystem in order to complement OpenNebula capabilities or to enhance its functionality.

• Join our ecosystem mailing list
• Check the ecosystem catalog
• References about interfaces
• Submit a new component to the ecosystem

You can support the project by funding the features you need.
