This topic just triggered anybody who spent even a second as a computer science major I hold a CS degree and have been working in various corners of the industry for north of a decade. Forgive me if I use jargon. [LFAQs-redacted-quote] That would be fantastic, since I have a terrible eye for style and frontend design. s0nicfan posted... You'll never get them to agree on a framework. Half will demand Angular. The other half will demand React. And then like... 3 guys in the corner will insist on VUE. If it's open source, they can all manage their own approach based on some common data interchange standard. With this in mind, I'm mostly concerned with the backend architecture. Tyranthraxus posted... Web dev here. If you buy a hosting site and pay me, I will gladly put a forum on it for you. Or you know.... There's another option. We could also just use a forum that already exists. If I wanted launch and host a GameFAQs clone forum on a LAMP stack, I could easily have a concept up and running by this evening, but I'm trying to conceptualize something a little more ambitious and robust which isn't at the mercy of a single administrator's whims or capacity / lack thereof for long-term infrastructural upkeep, but is still responsive to / upholds community values, if that makes any sense. bulldryer posted... This is an overkill solution for a very simple problem. Do not write off just hosting stuff in a database I'm not opposed to the use of a database; I just have reservations about a central one since I've seen many spinoffs and other websites come and go over the years, and would like the community to be able to collectively keep things going. With a more legacy architecture, administrators eventually go MIA, shut things down, deal with hosting infrastructure issues (e.g., db/instance failure without backup), etc. BlackOmnimon posted... didn't we have several gamefaqs clones back in the day? Yes, there was a rich ecosystem of them twenty years ago, which tended to run on LAMP stacks but were only online so long as they were managed by their administrators. Now they're mostly gone, because the administrators stopped caring or the sites got hacked. --- http://i.imgur.com/A0TAfek.png <cite>TheMikh posted [p:979922826] in Web develo...
