Support the project

Behat is free software, maintained by volunteers as a gift for users. If you'd like to see the project continue to thrive, and particularly if you use it for work, we'd encourage you to contribute.

Contributions of time - whether code, documentation, or support reviewing PRs and triaging issues - are very welcome and valued by the maintainers and the wider Behat community.

But we also believe that financial sponsorship is an important part of a healthy Open Source ecosystem. Maintaining a project like Behat requires a significant commitment from the core team: your support will help us to keep making that time available over the long term. Even small contributions make a big difference.

You can support @acoulton, @carlos-granados and @stof on GitHub sponsors. If you'd like to discuss supporting us in a different way, please get in touch!
