Community Standards

Code of Conduct

Our commitment to building a respectful, inclusive, and growth-focused community. These standards apply to every member, everywhere.

Last updated: March 3, 2026Applies to all membersReport a violation
01

Purpose

React Aligarh is a community built by builders, for builders. Our goal is to create a safe, supportive, and growth-focused space where every member — regardless of skill level — can learn, build real projects, collaborate openly, and share their progress without fear of judgment, harassment, or negativity.

This Code of Conduct sets the standard for how we treat each other. It applies to all community spaces — our platform, Discord server, events, social media channels, and any other space where React Aligarh members interact.

Everyone deserves to feel welcome here. This document is how we ensure that.

02

Our Values

These are the principles that guide everything we do as a community:

Respect

Every member deserves dignity, regardless of background, skill level, or opinion.

Collaboration

We build better together. Share knowledge, not competition.

Learning by Building

Progress comes from shipping real work, not just consuming content.

Accountability

Own your actions, your mistakes, and your growth.

Integrity

Be honest about your work, your sources, and your intentions.

Growth Mindset

Embrace feedback, stay curious, and never stop improving.

03

Expected Behavior

As a member of React Aligarh, we expect you to:

  • Treat every member with respect — online and in person.
  • Offer constructive, specific, and kind feedback when reviewing others' work.
  • Give proper credit when referencing, building on, or sharing someone else's work.
  • Help fellow members when you can — mentorship flows in all directions.
  • Communicate professionally, even in casual conversations.
  • Take responsibility for your actions and their impact on others.
  • Be patient with beginners — everyone starts somewhere.
  • Keep community spaces positive, on-topic, and free from unnecessary noise.
  • Speak up respectfully if you witness behaviour that makes others uncomfortable.
04

Unacceptable Behavior

The following behaviours are not tolerated under any circumstances in React Aligarh:

  • Harassment, bullying, intimidation, or threatening behaviour — in public or private.
  • Discrimination based on gender, religion, caste, ethnicity, nationality, disability, or any other characteristic.
  • Hate speech, offensive language, slurs, or content that demeans any group of people.
  • Personal attacks — criticising ideas is welcome, attacking people is not.
  • Plagiarism or presenting someone else's code, writing, or ideas as your own without credit.
  • Spamming, unsolicited self-promotion, or advertising without prior permission.
  • Sharing harmful, explicit, violent, or illegal content.
  • Doxxing — sharing another person's private information without their consent.
  • Impersonating any community member, mentor, or team representative.
  • Deliberately derailing conversations, spreading misinformation, or trolling.

Violation of any of the above will result in action — from a warning to permanent removal. We do not negotiate on safety.

05

Reporting Issues

If you experience or witness behaviour that violates this Code of Conduct, please report it. You are not alone, and you will not face any retaliation for speaking up.

How to report:

  • Email us directly at hello@reactaligarh.com with a description of the incident.
  • Reach out via our Discord server to any Core Team member privately.
  • You may report anonymously — we will still take the report seriously.

What to expect after reporting:

  • All reports are reviewed confidentially by the Core Team.
  • We will acknowledge receipt of your report within 48 hours.
  • We will investigate the matter fairly and transparently.
  • You will be updated on the outcome where appropriate.
  • Retaliation against anyone who reports a violation is strictly prohibited and grounds for immediate action.
06

Enforcement

Depending on the severity and context of the violation, the React Aligarh Core Team may take the following actions:

01

Formal Warning

A private, written notice clearly stating the violation and expected change in behaviour. May include a temporary restriction from specific channels.

02

Temporary Suspension

Access to community spaces is temporarily restricted, with a defined reinstatement period and conditions to return.

03

Permanent Removal

Permanent ban from all React Aligarh spaces. Reserved for severe violations, repeated offences, or behaviour that poses a threat to community safety.

Leadership decisions on serious violations are final. We act in the best interest of the community, not the individual.

07

  • We will enforce this Code of Conduct consistently and fairly.
  • We will listen to all community members — especially those who feel unheard.
  • We will evolve these guidelines as our community grows.
  • We will always prioritise the safety and wellbeing of our members over convenience.
