Programming Skills to Help Ukraine

Are you a developer, software engineer, or tech enthusiast looking to make a real-world impact? Use your programming skills to support Ukraine’s defense, resilience, and humanitarian efforts. Whether you’re a front-end wizard, back-end specialist, full-stack dev, or data science expert — your talent is needed.

Why Your Code Matters

Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, technology has become one of the most vital tools in the defense and survival of the country. From secure communications to real-time mapping tools, from drone control systems to humanitarian logistics — software powers it all.

Ukrainian defense volunteers and non-profits are in constant need of technical support to:

  • Build tools for situational awareness
  • Improve logistics platforms for delivering aid
  • Automate workflows for open-source intelligence (OSINT)
  • Support drone software development
  • Develop cybersecurity solutions
  • Create internal dashboards for coordination and planning

What You Can Do

You don’t have to be on the front lines to make a difference. You can contribute remotely, part-time, and based on your skills and availability.

Here are a few ways developers are already helping Ukraine:

  • Building web platforms to coordinate volunteers and aid
  • Writing scripts to collect and analyze OSINT data
  • Developing firmware for DIY drones and electronics
  • Contributing to open-source projects that support Ukraine
  • Advising Ukrainian teams on infrastructure and scaling

Who We’re Looking For

We welcome volunteers with experience in:

  • JavaScript, Python, Go, Rust, C/C++, Node.js, etc.
  • Web development (React, Vue, Django, etc.)
  • Data science, ML, and geospatial tools
  • DevOps, cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, etc.)
  • Embedded systems and drone tech
  • Cybersecurity and secure communications

Even if you’re not a pro, you can still help — many tasks involve testing, documentation, translation, or managing projects.
