<h2>Current community-supported drivers</h2>
<p>These drivers have been updated to use the JSON driver protocol and at least RethinkDB 2.0 ReQL.</p>

<h2>Drivers with limited features</h2>
<p>These drivers may not support all of RethinkDB 2.0's ReQL. However, if you wish to work with one of these languages, they may provide a good starting point.</p>

Help make RethinkDB available on more platforms—contribute a driver for another language, or join one of the existing projects. To get started with driver development:
- Read the article on writing RethinkDB drivers.
- Subscribe to the RethinkDB driver developers group.
- Read the source code for existing drivers.
Thanks to all our amazing driver contributors!
