# Airbyte Handbook
# Overview
Welcome to our company handbook.
![GitHub Workflow Status](https://img.shields.io/github/workflow/status/airbytehq/airbyte/Airbyte%20CI) ![License](https://img.shields.io/github/license/airbytehq/airbyte)
This is where you will find all information about Airbyte, its story, culture, strategy, roadmap, internal processes, etc.
![](docs/.gitbook/assets/airbyte_horizontal_color_white-background.svg)
Transparency is one of our core values, which is why we make this handbook public.
**Data integration made simple, secure and extensible.**
The new open-source standard to sync data from applications, APIs & databases to warehouses, lakes & other destinations.
We believe the best ideas and solutions come from a place where people trust each other. And trust is built on transparency.

We also see transparency as a way for us to involve the community in the problem we’re solving. And we hope you’ll trust us and our mission.

If you have any questions or are interested in joining us, please don’t hesitate to ping us at hey@airbyte.io.
Airbyte is on a mission to make data integration pipelines a commodity.
This handbook will grow with us, and we’ll keep it up-to-date \(as much as possible\).
* **Maintenance-free connectors you can use in minutes**. Just authenticate your sources and warehouse, and get connectors that adapt to schema and API changes for you.
* **Building new connectors made trivial.** We make it very easy to add new connectors that you need, using the language of your choice, by offering scheduling and orchestration.
* Designed to **cover the long tail of connectors and needs**. Benefit from the community's battle-tested connectors and adapt them to your specific needs.
* **Your data stays in your cloud**. Have full control over your data, and the costs of your data transfers.
* **No more security compliance process** to go through as Airbyte is self-hosted.
* **No more pricing indexed on volume**, as cloud-based solutions offer.
Here's a list of our [connectors with their health status](docs/integrations/connector-health.md).
## Quick start
```bash
git clone https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte.git
cd airbyte
docker-compose up
```
Now visit [http://localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000)
Here is a [step-by-step guide](docs/getting-started.md) showing you how to load data from an API into a file, all on your computer.
## Features
* **Built for extensibility**: Adapt an existing connector to your needs or build a new one with ease.
* **Optional normalized schemas**: Entirely customizable, start with raw data or from some suggestion of normalized data.
* **Full-grade scheduler**: Automate your replications with the frequency you need.
* **Real-time monitoring**: We log all errors in full detail to help you understand.
* **Incremental updates**: Automated replications are based on incremental updates to reduce your data transfer costs.
* **Manual full refresh**: Sometimes, you need to re-sync all your data to start again.
* **Debugging autonomy**: Modify and debug pipelines as you see fit, without waiting.

## Contributing
We love contributions to Airbyte, big or small.
See our [Contributing guide](docs/contributing-to-airbyte/) on how to get started. Not sure where to start? We’ve listed some [good first issues](https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/labels/good%20first%20issue) to start with. You can also [book a free, no-pressure pairing session](https://calendly.com/michel-airbyte/contribution-1-1) with one of our core contributors.
**Note that you are able to create connectors using the language you want, as Airbyte connections run as Docker containers.**
**Also, we will never ask you to maintain your connector. The goal is that the Airbyte team and the community helps maintain it, let's call it crowdsourced maintenance!**
