隨著現在熱愛自製及改裝的科技狂熱份子社群越來越熱門，Make 雜誌給予一個空間讓世界各地的自製份子可以交流和分享，喜愛 DIY (Do It Yourself) 和 DIWO (Do It With Others)方案的人們能在 Make 上活躍，也能讓一般讀者了解這塊充滿創意的領域。

「學習、製造、分享」是在國際自造者社群中始終熱門的三個主要理念，也讓許多硬體或軟體應用程式之開放原始碼計畫使用「Hacking (駭客) 」一詞。Make 雜誌提供了一個平台給創意社群去展示他們創作指南和 DIY 自己動手作的專案，這些 DIY 專案是由舊的和新的硬體元件、微型控制器、電子元件、和傳統素材，就像木頭、金屬、紡織布料等製作結合出來的。這些充滿想像力的創意點子就像給作品錦上添花。

Make 的編輯利用撰寫背景文章和主題式新聞，例如關於微型控制器、嵌入式開發、和電子數位製造流程（例如 3D 列印機和雷射切割），來支持這些世界各地的自造團體 ，目標就是激發社群去使用像焊接和鋸子等的工具，去製造及發展出自己的科技點子。

當然，還有給一般民眾閱讀的內容，例如互動藝術裝置和創意及自編程式的智慧家庭 (Home Automation）。媒體內容不只是提供給電子領域的專家，有野心和熱情的科技藝術家和創意電腦設計師都是 Make 的目標客群。

Make 除了雜誌之外，還會舉辦創客嘉年華活動 (Maker Faire)。Make Faire 是為了所有喜愛創作的玩家所設立的活動，其中包含製造商、學校、駭客空間 (hacker spaces) 和啟發創意的實驗室 (FabLabs)， 主要是讓所有人都能在此發揮創意動手做。各家製造商或公司也能以活動贊助的方式在會場展示公司的產品及服務。

“Learning, making and sharing”, these three basic principles of the international Maker community are still topical today and have enabled numerous open source projects for hardware and software applications using the term „hacking“. Make offers a platform for this creative community to showcase its construction instructions and DIY projects made from old and new hardware components, microcontrollers, electronic parts and traditional materials such as wood, metal or fabric. Creative and surprising ideas and solutions are the icing on the cake.

Editorial staff supports these global maker groups with background articles and news about topics such as microcontroller and embedded development, electronics and digital manufacturing processes like 3D printing and laser cutting. The goal is to inspire the community to work on projects using tools like soldering irons and saws and to further develop their own technical ideas.

There is something for everybody: from interactive art installations to creative and self-programmed home automation.

However, the magazine’s contents do not only apply to electronics experts, but also to ambitious technical artists and creative computer designers.

In addition to the magazine, Make organizes the Maker Faire – a festival for the entire family – where makers, schools, hacker spaces and FabLabs inspire and invite to participate and replicate. Next to private makers, also companies can present their projects and products as sponsors of the Maker Faire.
