Solr is developed by contributors to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) through an open, meritocratic process that goes well beyond simply sharing the source code. Visit the ASF website to learn more.
The Solr Community provides user support for free through the solr-user mailing list and other channels mentioned here. There are also a number of external companies and professionals ready to help, see the user-maintained list at cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Support.
This list is for users of Solr to ask questions, share knowledge, and discuss issues. We strongly encourage users to send usage and configuration questions and problems to this mailing list. Before filing an issue in the JIRA issue tracker, make sure it‘s a real bug and that it hasn’t been already discovered by discussing it here.

The Solr Wiki maintains a list of searchable mailing list archives at
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SOLR/SolrResources#SolrResources-MailingListArchives.
No endorsement is implied by the listing of an archive on the Wiki.
Each Lucene project maintains its own mailing lists. Please refer to the project you are interested in for details on subscribing to its mailing list.
There are two primary IRC channels dedicated to Solr at freenode.net.
• #solr -- Channel for Solr user questions
• #solr-dev -- Hangout for discussion of Solr development
The IRC channel can be used for online discussion about Lucene™/Solr related stuff, but developers should be careful to transfer all the official decisions or useful discussions to the issue tracking system. Note that the solr-user mailing list will reach a lot more people than the IRC channel, but if it's the right time of day, the IRC channel can offer a more interactive experience with faster turnaround.
This wiki page has links to a web-based IRC client, and a wealth of information about how to get the most out of the IRC channels.
The project's Slack channels are #lucene-dev and #solr-dev in the the-asf organization. These are primarily for developer discussions and not meant as support channels. Link: https://the-asf.slack.com/messages/CE70MDPMF
There are unofficial slack organizations for Solr support
Solr uses the ASF JIRA instance.
You can browse, search, and create issues here. Patches welcome! This is not the correct place to start when you need support. Problems should be discussed on the mailing list and/or via IRC before creating an issue.

The Solr source code resides in the Apache GIT repository. Various GIT clients can be obtained from git-scm.com. There are also GIT integrations for various IDEs. For Eclipse, look at EGit. IntelliJ has git support bundled, if you have installed the command line version.
The source code can be browsed via the Web at https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=lucene-solr.git. No GIT client software is required.
The code can also be browsed through our GitHub mirror at https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/.
