GIMP Development
This site tries to provide useful information for developers:
If you are into resource creation, e.g. plug-in development, you should look at the Resource Development
section.
If you wish to contribute to GIMP itself, you should read the Core Development
section.
Note: for the main GIMP website, visit www.gimp.org instead; the GIMP manual is at docs.gimp.org .
