Discourse is the 100% open source, next-generation discussion platform built for the next 10 years of the Internet.

Whenever you need ...

* a mailing list
* a forum to discuss something
* a chat room where you can type paragraphs

... consider Discourse.


## Getting Started

If you're interested in helping us develop Discourse, please start with our **[Discourse Developer Install Guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/DEVELOPMENT.md)**, which includes instructions to get up and running in a development environment.

### The quick and easy setup

```
git clone <EMAIL>:discourse/discourse.git
cd discourse
bundle install
rake db:create
rake db:migrate
rake db:seed_fu
redis-cli flushall
thin start
```

## Vision

This is the **Civilized Discourse Construction Kit**, a fully open-source package of forum software that is free to use and contribute to. Discourse embraces the changes that are necessary to evolve forum software, namely:

* A **flattened discussion**, which avoids the pains of threaded forums, and delivers a more robust, intuitive interface to join a conversation at any point.
* A **self-learning system**, capable of examining the behavior of the community, and adapting to budding moderators and forum trolls alike.
* A **seamless web-only** interface that delivers usability on both the desktop and the tablet, without the need for a native app.
* A **contemporary, robust technology stack**, so that both users and administrators alike have another choice BESIDES php.

The Discourse team wishes to **foster an active community of contributors**, all of whom commit to delivering this continued vision, and ensure that online discussions can grow and thrive in an Internet age dominated by micro-blogging and diminishing attention spans.

This vision translates to the following functional commitments:

1. Support all contemporary browsers on the desktop:
  * Internet Explorer 9.0, 10.0+
  * Firefox 16+
  * Google Chrome *infinite*
   
2. Supporting the latest generation of tablets:  
  * iPad 2+
  * Android 4.1+ on 7" and 10"
  * Windows 8

3. Deliver support for mobile/smartphones *as soon as possible*:
  * Windows Phone 8
  * iPhone 4+
  * Android 4.0+
