Hackerspaces ^{(also hacklabs, hackspaces)} are community-operated physical places, where people share their interest in tinkering with technology, meet and work on their projects, and learn from each other.

hackerspaces.org is an informal volunteer network of such spaces, maintaining community services - including an open wiki for everyone who wants to share their hackerspace information, stories and questions. From around the world, hackers meet on the libera.chat IRC channel #hackerspaces that is bridged to #chat:hackspaces.org on [matrix].
