Open source is at the core of everything we do at GitBook — it’s where we started, and it’s still fundamental to everything we build today.

As part of our continued membership in the Open Source Pledge, we’re sharing our 2025 contributions. This year, we had 15 developers on our team and paid a total of $34,054 directly to open source maintainers and foundations.
