+title: "The Apache Pulsar Community Welcomes 500th Contributor!"
+date: 2022-02-24
+author: "Matteo Merli", "Karin Landers", "Alice Bi"

+
+
+Apache Pulsar is one of the fastest growing, most engaged open source
projects, recognized by the [Apache Software
Foundation](https://thestack.technology/top-apache-projects-in-2021-from-superset-to-nuttx/)
as a Top 5 Project based on engagement in 2021. The vitality of any open
source project relies on continued community growth and engagement, and this
month, the Apache Pulsar community hit another major milestone: **welcoming its
500th contributor!**
+
+A cloud-native messaging and event streaming platform, Apache Pulsar was
committed to open source in 2016, and graduated as a Top-Level Project (TLP) in
September 2018. Since its inception, the project has received 10k+ Github
stars, 2.7k+ forks, and 6.1k+ Slack users.
+
+
+
+The number of contributors in an open-source project is meaningful because it
signals project adoption, growth, advancement, and accelerated development of
the technology. This milestone is even more exciting, considering the speed at
which the community is growing, adding an additional 100 contributors in under
seven months, representing 8X contributor growth since becoming a top-level
Apache Software Foundation project.
+
+
+
+## Get Involved
+
+Community growth leads to additional adoption and project enhancement, and new
contributors are an excellent way to track progress of the Pulsar project.
Thank you to the community and contributors for your continued involvement!
