   Best Forum Experience

   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.

• Launchpad to quickly start a SaaS business?

  Hey, thanks for the mention! I'm the creator of Nodewood, and I'm happy to answer any questions anyone has on it, or really anything else in the space I can help with. Source: over 3 years ago

• Build Your Own Web Framework

  This is largely why I built Nodewood [1]. Every time I wanted to start a new project, almost always a SaaS idea, I'd skip over the "boring stuff" like building user management, subscription management, teams, admin, all that, to get to the meat of the business logic, to make sure I had a valid idea. But I still needed all that stuff eventually, so I'd have to lose time later building it all in! So I decided to... - Source: Hacker News / almost 4 years ago

• Fresh is a new full stack web framework for Deno

  This is actually part of why I created Nodewood [1], because every new Node project required pulling all that together, and every new SaaS idea I had had the same basic requirements (user management, subscription management, teams support, etc). Then I figured, if I found this useful, surely others would too, so I packaged it up and have had a few happy customers since then, who have helped me refine it, which... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago

• Ask HN: Side projects that are making money, but you'd not talk about them?

  Well, I've spoken about this before, and on here no less, but only really in response to posts like this. I don't do any advertising or speak about mine except in interviews, since it's usually indicative of the kind of requirements they're looking for. I created a SaaS bootstrap for Javascript called Nodewood [1]. It actually started as just a template for me, because there's a lot of setup for each new JS web... - Source: Hacker News / about 4 years ago

• Ask HN: Best SaaS Boilerplate?

  Disclaimer: I'm the author of the following boilerplate. Nodewood (https://nodewood.com/) is a Javascript SaaS boilerplate built to take advantage of using Javascript on the server and in the UI. Models, Validators, and other business logic can be re-used in both builds, so you don't have to write, rewrite, and maintain that logic in both places, or in different languages. It has built-in subscription management... - Source: Hacker News / over 4 years ago

• Don't Use Discord as a Forum

  > 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

• Don't Use Discord as a Forum

  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 $). Big fan of letting people use the search interface they want, which is almost always Google. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• Hey Guys, I'm an Open Source enthusiast. StackFoss.com is an open source StackOverFlow alternative, and what makes StackFoss awesome is Focus on open source and Ad-free.

  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
