Metaculus Is Open Source

We completely rewrote the platform to make it easier for open-source contributors to build on our code. Maybe that's you? If it is, you can find the Metaculus code repo and can learn more here. 

We've included instructions for setting up a local development environment and on creating an issue. We've also selected some easier issues, perfect for getting started.

Make a significant contribution, and we'll mail you a Metaculus hoodie to show our gratitude. 

Also, in rewriting the platform, we introduced a variety of new features and quality-of-life improvements, including improvements to user profiles, notifications, the ability to zoom in on a time period in a forecast plot, and much more. You can find all the details here.
