+
+Get involved in Waku's open-source initiatives to improve the protocol, implementations, developer tools, and documentation.
+
+## Run a Node
+
+The Waku network is permissionless and decentralized, consisting of nodes. It is open for anyone to run their node, use the network, and contribute to its support. Please visit the [running a nwaku node](https://github.com/waku-org/nwaku/blob/master/docs/operators/quickstart.md) guide to learn more.
+
+## Build a Waku Application
+
+By integrating Waku into your application, you can contribute by:
+
+- Running a Waku node within your application.
+- Reporting bugs and suggesting missing features to the development team.
+- Inspiring other developers to explore and utilize Waku for [various use cases](/overview/use-cases).
+
+Begin your journey by exploring [Waku's diverse platforms](/platform/overview) and start building today!
+
+## Report a Bug
+
+To report a bug, create an issue in the appropriate [GitHub repository](https://github.com/waku-org). Ensure no issue exists about the bug and include detailed steps to reproduce the bug.
+
+## Request for a Feature

 ## Predefined Nodes
 
-Waku applications have the flexibility to embed bootstrap node addresses directly into their codebase. Developers can opt to utilize either the [predefined nodes by Status](https://github.com/waku-org/js-waku/blob/master/packages/core/src/lib/predefined_bootstrap_nodes.ts#L45) or [set up their nodes](https://github.com/waku-org/nwaku/tree/master/docs/operators) per their preference.

 ## Waku as a Service Network
 
-Waku intends to incentivize mechanisms to run nodes, but it's not part of libp2p's scope. Additionally, users or developers do not have to deploy their infra as a prerequisite to use Waku. It is a service network. However, you are encouraged to [run your node](https://github.com/waku-org/nwaku/tree/master/docs/operators) to support and decentralize the network.
