+description:
+  Join the Mina Protocol devnet program and start testing the Rust node
+  implementation
+slug: /node-operators/join-devnet
+---
+
+# Join devnet
+
+The Mina Protocol devnet is an existing testing network where OCaml nodes are
+currently running. Community members can join this network with the Rust node
+implementation to test interoperability and contribute to improving the Rust
+node implementation. By joining devnet, you'll gain experience with the Mina
+Rust node while helping validate the Rust implementation.
+
+## Getting started
+
+Follow these steps to join the devnet program:
+
+### 1. Join the Discord
+
+Connect with the Mina community and devnet participants:
+
+- **Channel**: #devnet
+- **Invite link**: https://discord.gg/minaprotocol
+
+We recommend introducing yourself in the channel and joining the testing
+channels:
+
+- #rust-node-testing
+- #rust-node-questions-and-feedback
+
+### 2. Obtain devnet test tokens
+
+Get test tokens to start participating in the network:
+
+- **Faucet**: https://faucet.minaprotocol.com/
+
+The faucet provides tokens for general testing purposes.
+
+### 3. Set up your node
+
+Install and configure your Mina Rust node:
+
+- Follow the [Getting Started guide](getting-started) to install your node
+- Refer to [Node Operations](block-producer) for configuration options
+- Visit the official documentation: https://docs.minaprotocol.com/
+
+### 4. Block producer testing (optional)
+
+If you want to test block production and need a larger amount of devnet test
+tokens:
+
+Contact the devnet coordinators on Discord:
+
+- **CrisF**: Discord ID `412482228359266328`
+- **JohnR**: Discord ID `686750097660444716`
+
+They can provide additional tokens and guidance for block producer testing.
+
+## Next steps
+
+Once you've joined the devnet:
+
+1. Set up your node following the [Block Producer guide](block-producer)
+2. Set up the [node dashboard](../developers/frontend/node-dashboard) to monitor
+   the next blocks you will produce, your node's state, and performance metrics
+3. Share feedback and report issues in the testing channels
+4. Participate in testing activities and network experiments
+5. Stay updated: The o1Labs team makes regular updates to the node. Check for
+   updates frequently and keep your node up to date
+
+## Getting help
+
+If you encounter any issues or have questions:
+
+- Ask in the #devnet channel on Discord
+- Check the #rust-node-questions-and-feedback channel for known issues
+- Visit the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/o1-labs/mina-rust) to report
+  bugs
+- Review the [Node Management guide](node-management) for troubleshooting tips
+
+Welcome to the Mina devnet community!
