# Welcome to ThreadR
|
||||||
|
This is the source code for ThreadR Forum Engine. It originated as a school project with the goal of developing a mix between a forum engine and a social media platform. When school was over, we left the project up for some time with the general intention to continue working on it until I took it down after an extended period of inactivity to host my own website on my server.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Now, that it is being revived, the original scope of the project doesn’t really make sense anymore (at least to me) so it needs to shift slightly. Below is a list of goals that I would like to see achieved, feel free to discuss this in the issues or commit comments.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] come back online (see issue #2)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] go FOSS (make the source code publicly available under a FOSS license (see issue #5) and preferably usable for everyone to host an instance)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] get generic forum functionality going (creation of boards, creation of threads within boards, messages)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Once these two are given, here are some additional goals both from the original scope of the project any my own ideas. Input is welcome.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- [ ] anonymous posts (users can choose to post anonymously, registered users will have a unique name per thread to tell users apart)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] subscribing to threads
|
||||||
|
- [ ] "split thread here" feature (kinda like on Reddit when multiple ppl answer to one person)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] automatic loading of new messages in threads (opt-out in settings)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] notifications for new messages in subscribed threads (opt-out in settings)
|
||||||
|
- [ ] question threads with an "accept answer" feature, threads can be marked as question threads on creation
|
||||||
|
- [ ] like/dislike feature but in better (as in more limited in functionality and more nuanced, kinda like on StackExchange but with two types of likes/dislikes and without showing an actual number)
