# Tools with a shared purpose

Explore the libraries, applications, integrations and builders that bring Get Bible into everyday use. Some are deployed applications, some are developer utilities, and some are projects you can help test and advance.

## The next Get Bible app

The [Get Bible app](/project/app/) is under development. It uses API v2 today, with v3 and study-resource integration planned as future work. The ambition is to bring it to app stores and desktops. Help by building it, testing the current experience and contributing to the next stage.

The existing desktop and web projects remain separately documented. Their maturity, build process and feature set are described in their own guides; they are not interchangeable releases of the developing app.

## Reuse and contribute

Each project guide links to its repository and explains its installation, configuration, use and requirements. Follow the license and contribution instructions of the specific project. When working with Bible or study content, also preserve the rights and attribution information of the underlying work.

All public questions go to the [central support desk](https://git.vdm.dev/getBible/support). To help with development, testing or documentation, see [Get involved](/contribute/).
