Project Description

Kanidm is a modern, fast, opensource IDM aiming to be an alternative to projects like 389-ds, freeipa, samba 4 and others. Inspired by many identity as a services, many features of this project aim to advance the state of what is possible with opensource security and IDM today.

There are many areas of idm that can be explored and many ways to contribute. This can be from testing and feedback, documentation improvements, code review, design review, or code. There are a large range of code problems from database internals, usability and security.
