Apache Incubator

The Apache Incubator is a program by the Apache Software Foundation that helps new software projects develop and grow. It provides guidance, resources, and oversight to teams so they can build and maintain their projects effectively while following Apache's principles of community and open-source collaboration. Projects in the incubator are often in early stages and are transitioning to become full-fledged Apache projects. The program ensures they have the support needed to succeed and eventually graduate to become official Apache projects, contributing to the open-source ecosystem.
