# The MacPorts ProjectWe provide a single software tree that attempts to track the latest release of every software title (port) we distribute,without splitting them into “stable” Vs. “unstable” branches, targeting mainly macOS Ventura v13 and later(including macOS Tahoe v26 on both Intel and Apple Silicon).**thousands** of ports](https://ports.macports.org/) in our tree, distributed among different categories, and more are being added on a regular basis.### Getting startedFor information on installing MacPorts please see the installation section of this site andexplore the myriad of download options we provide and our base system requirements.If you run into any problems installing and/or using MacPorts we also have many options to help you, depending on howyou wish to get get in touch with us. Other important help resources are our online documentation,A.K.A The MacPorts Guide, and our Trac [Wikiserver & bug tracker](https://trac.macports.org/).**Latest MacPorts release: 2.12.5**### Getting involved: StudentsA good way for students to get involved is through the Google Summer of Code. GSoC is a program to encourage students' participation in Open Source development and offers a stipend to work on the project with an organization for three months. MacPorts has been participating in the program since 2007! We shall participate next year as well. You may find past GSoC projects here.We have a list of ideas with possible tasks for MacPorts and additional information about the process at wiki/SummerOfCode. We are always open to new ideas. Research on the idea, draft an initial proposal and get it reviewed.### Getting involvedThere are many ways you can get involved with MacPorts and peer users, system administrators & developers alike.Browse over to the “Contact Us” section of our site and:* Explore our mailing lists, either if it is for some general user support or toThe same call, in code.
