Welcome to TianoCore, the community supporting an open source implementation of UEFI. EDK II is a modern, feature-rich, cross-platform firmware development environment for the UEFI and PI specifications. We hope that you’ll delve into our work, use TianoCore for platform firmware, report any issues you find, and contribute to the community.

If you want to compile firmware or utilities, we recommend the Getting Started with EDK II page. This provides an overview of downloading EDK II from github and building a sample platform (NT32, OVMF, MdePkg, ...). You can also use UDK2015, the latest stable snapshot of the EDK II project. The next stable snapshot, UDK2017, is planned for June 2017.

There are multiple hardware platforms using EDK II open source UEFI firmware, including MinnowBoard Max/Turbot, MinnowBoard 3, and Intel® Galileo Gen 2. This allows you to experiment and develop UEFI features on real hardware.

TianoCore uses Bugzilla to track issues and feature requests. Please review Reporting Issues and Reporting Security Issues for more information. If you would like to contribute code or fix issues, please see How To Contribute. The Tasks page has a list of priority work items.
