About Hack Orbit

An open-source organisation for builders.

Hack Orbit is an open-source technology organisation and developer community. It was founded on a simple idea: that people who build things should have a real, participatory home — a place to ship projects, contribute to shared open-source work, and grow together as a community.

Our philosophy

Build. Contribute. Orbit together.

Build

We believe in shipping real things. Members build projects that range across the technology spectrum — web development, DevOps, AI/ML, and general software engineering.

Contribute

We believe in shared work. Contributions to Hack Orbit's official repositories are recognised and valued by the community.

Orbit together

We believe in community. Growth happens collectively — through collaboration, mentoring, and building a durable record of work that members can carry forward.

Positioning

Technology-neutral by design.

Hack Orbit is an engineering organisation, not a cybersecurity brand. The word "hack" is used in its original sense — to build, create, and tinker — not to imply security or breaching. Our community spans web development, DevOps, AI/ML, and technology broadly, and no single domain is privileged over the others.

Hack Orbit is not a cybersecurity or hacking-focused organisation. It is not an event-management platform. It is a community where developers build together and share open-source work.
