Why invite collaborators?
If your project repository is public (see Your first Repository on how to set up the visibility of a repository), everyone can see your repository and every Codeberg user can contribute through issues and pull requests. But this is not collaborating since you will be have to fix the issues and deal with the pull requests on your own.
On the other hand, if your repository is private, only you, your collaborators and the members of your organization (depending on their rights, see Create and Manage an Organization) can access your repository. In other words, if you want Codeberg users outside of your organization to be able to work with you on your project, you have to grant them access to your repository by adding them as collaborators.
It is important to understand that only registered Codeberg users can contribute. If you want a colleague or friend to work with you, you first have to make sure he/she has a Codeberg account (see Your First Steps on Codeberg).
Add a collaborator
To add a user to a repository as a collaborator, first go to the settings of your repository.
Then navigate to the Collaborators tab and search for the user you want to add, and click on Add Collaborator.
Once added, you can define the access rights by clicking on the shield: Read (can see but not edit), Write (can see and edit) or Administrator (can do everything!). This is also where you can remove collaborators.
