Lunar Frame is a free browser-based app for planning Moon photography shots. It helps photographers plan compositions where the Moon aligns with a specific target, such as a church, tower, bridge, chimney, hill or other landmark. You can set an observer point and a target on the map, check Moonrise and Moonset directions, search for good dates, preview the frame with your camera setup and analyze terrain visibility before going into the field.
The app includes calendar-based planning, a yearly alignment matrix, saved plans, terrain profile, frame simulation, custom map objects, Moon phases, conjunctions, eclipses and other sky events. One of its key features is the ability to add your own simple buildings or objects on the map and see them later in the frame simulation, which helps estimate whether something may block or shape the planned composition. Lunar Frame also includes an eclipse module with visibility maps, phase timelines, 3D visualization, comparison tools and educational explanations.
It works directly in the browser on desktop, tablet and mobile. It can also be installed as a PWA on a phone without using an app store.
Lunar Frame is actively developed and currently free to use.

LunarFrame.pl's answer:
Lunar Frame started as a personal tool. Its creator, ลukasz, regularly photographs the Moon over landmarks and landscape elements, but planning those shots often required switching between several different apps and maps.
The idea behind Lunar Frame was to create one place where a photographer could plan the whole shot: observer position, target, Moon alignment, terrain, camera frame and timing. Over time, the app expanded with saved plans, yearly matrices, frame simulation, custom map objects, eclipses and educational explanations.
The project is still actively developed and shaped by real photography workflows and user feedback.

LunarFrame.pl's answer:
Lunar Frame combines Moon photography planning, map-based alignments, terrain analysis, frame simulation and eclipse tools in one browser-based app.
Its strongest difference is the workflow around planning a shot with a specific target: you can set an observer and a target on the map, check Moonrise/Moonset alignment, scan multiple dates, use a yearly matrix, compare locations and preview the frame with your camera setup.
Lunar Frame also lets users add simple custom objects or buildings on the map and see them later in the frame simulation, which helps estimate whether a structure or obstacle may affect the planned composition.
LunarFrame.pl's answer:
Lunar Frame is free, works directly in the browser and can be used on desktop, tablet and mobile without installing a native app.
It is especially useful for photographers who plan Moon shots with specific landmarks, buildings, hills or other targets. Instead of checking one date at a time, users can scan multiple full moons, inspect a yearly matrix, compare several locations and use corridor-style planning to find better observation areas.
It also includes a growing eclipse module with visibility maps, phase timelines, 3D visualization and comparison tools, making it useful not only for Moon alignments but also for planning and understanding astronomical events.
LunarFrame.pl's answer:
Lunar Frame is primarily built for Moon photographers, landscape photographers, astrophotographers and visual creators who want to plan shots where the Moon aligns with a specific object or landscape feature.
It is also useful for astronomy enthusiasts who want to follow full moons, conjunctions, eclipses and other sky events in a more visual and practical way.
LunarFrame.pl's answer:
Lunar Frame is built as a browser-based web application / PWA.
NodeBB is a next-generation discussion platform that utilizes web sockets for instant interactions and real-time notifications. NodeBB forums have many modern features out of the box such as social network integration and streaming discussions. NodeBB is an open source project which can be forked on GitHub.
I was lucky enough to stumble on NodeBB in the early days right as we were transitioning a large user base from another forum and needed a platform that could handle the volume and speed of interactions that our users demanded. We took a big risk on NodeBB in 2014 when it was brand new and it has paid off in spades over the years. For seven years our users have consistently raved about ease of use and performance of the platform while on the back end we have been thrilled with the ease of management and low resource needs of hosting even for a site hitting hundreds of millions of hits per month. It is modern, regularly updated, has a great community and team behind it. We've always gotten lots of support and know that we made the right choice and continue to choose NodeBB as our forum of choice.
Based on our record, NodeBB seems to be more popular. It has been mentiond 4 times since March 2021. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.

> I'm a big fan of https://nodebb.org/ TIL to what shit Netgate moved pfSense forums to. I'm glad you are fine with it, but not only my FullHD monitor is not a smartphone, so I don't need 400% fonts on everything (and post dates on the faaaaar right clearly shows nobody ever even used the forum) and most importantly - search doesn't work. It's not like the previous forum had a good search, but at least it worked.... - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago
I wrote about this a while ago for Slack/forums: https://www.mooreds.com/wordpress/archives/3451 but the points still hold. HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29154216 Full featured OSS forum you can self-host or let them host for you (for $).

You said it's based on. This means that there are modifications to the implementation of nodebb. So where is your modifications' source code then? stackfoss/stackfoss is just a single readme file. Source: over 3 years ago
