The Mage-OS Association is a non-profit association formed by people within the Magento community to represent and further the interests of that community as a whole: Merchants, developers, agencies, and all of the many people supporting and supported by this ecosystem.
The ideas behind Mage-OS were first shared in an Open Letter about the future of Magento. That letter prompted discussions and action across the community. The letter was signed by 1,641 people that use, develop, or otherwise depend on Magento for a living. Mage-OS brings the ideas of that letter to life.
As a non-profit organization, Mage-OS was founded with formal statutes that define how the association is structured and operates. View the Mage-OS Association statutes
Mage-OS is incorporated in Poland, but is represented worldwide.

Our People
The Mage-OS project is carried by people who, as we put it in the Magento Community ” Bleed Orange”. To set up the Board of Directors, we looked for passionate leaders with a long and strong history with Magento who all bring deep expertise and extensive experience in all the required fields to make this initiative work. Key thing they have in common: the drive to move, fast. They set the example and lead Committees to achieve great things and hit milestones every months with the help of talented and motivated Contributors.
Driven by that same passion, Local Chapters have come to life so people can meet in person, share in their own language and help Mage-OS reach way more people.
