All things code

Source code

Elastic releases our products under a few different models. Elasticsearch and Kibana are released as open source projects that are dual licensed under either Server Side Public License (SSPL) or the Elastic License. Other open source projects are licensed Apache 2.0 License. The code is hosted at GitHub and we love receiving contributions from our community, whether they are bug reports, feature requests, document improvements, or patches. Read on for more details about contributing.

Don't want to compile from source? No problem! You can find zip archives, tarballs, plus DEB and RPM packages on our downloads page.

Documentation

We have extensive documentation for all of our products, including our language clients, various plugins for Elasticsearch and Logstash, and our Apache Hadoop connector.

We welcome and encourage contributions to improve our documentation. You can check out the instructions to compile the documentation from source and submit improvements via a pull request, or just click on the edit button on any of our docs pages to submit a fix.

All documentation contributions require you to execute a Contributor License Agreement.
