State programs supporting the IT sector, along with the activities of non-profit, donor, and private organizations, contribute to the growth of various IT communities. The number of residents in Uzbekistan interested in IT topics is growing every day. This is why initiative-takers are creating interest-based groups in IT: for project management, programming, administration of technological solutions, and many others. A community of like-minded people allows for sharing information, discussing pressing issues, joking with humor that is understood within the group, and, most importantly, supporting each other.

Today, any citizen of Uzbekistan can be part of an unlimited number of communities simultaneously. There are also closed communities where only women communicate, and it has turned out that the number of women in the IT field is increasing day by day.
