Forem - online community

[ei8fdb]

Forem is open source software for building communities. Communities for your peers, customers, fanbases, families, friends, and any other time and space where people need to come together to be part of a collective. See our announcement post for a high-level overview of what Forem is.

dev.to (or just DEV) is hosted by Forem. It is a community of software developers who write articles, take part in discussions, and build their professional profiles. We value supportive and constructive dialogue in the pursuit of great code and career growth for all members. The ecosystem spans from beginner to advanced developers, and all are welcome to find their place within our community.

Looks like a much better open-source alternative to Facebook Pages - good find!

@ei8fdb I didn't realize this before (looks like I might not have read your original post entirely ...) but this is the software that runs dev.to, very cool! I could see this as a great addition to Cloudron.

@Sam_uk I know you've already gone down the HumHub route but check this out too

@ei8fdb sure looks good, but I notice that they state Fedora CoreOS, running on the Stable stream as a requirement. I think usually Cloudron runs on Ubuntu, so not sure if that causes a packaging problem. Or maybe they just haven't tested it fully on Ubuntu and it's not a requirement strictly.
