BobaBoard

BobaBoard is a modern, open source community-building software that draws inspiration from old-school forums for functionality and from modern social media for its style of interaction. It prioritizes privacy and fluidity of identity for users within communities and allows high levels of customization and fine-grained permission settings for users, community managers, and instance owners. The unique UX encourages creative expression across different formats, styles of communication, and community building.

You can find out more about BobaBoard in general on our website and as a project by visiting our project guide.

This Repo

Built Using TypeScript Badge React Badge React Query Badge Playwright Badge Next.js Badge Yarn Badge

boba-frontend handles the interactions of our UI with the server, lays out the pages that BobaBoard is made of, and supplies the functionality of those pages.

Relationships To Other Repos

Boba-frontend requires boba-backend to function as it queries the backend for user, thread, and post states.

Boba-components provides boba-frontend with its UI pieces primarily impacting the design of the UI.

Note

The above description is an "aspirational state" for our repos and we are still working on defining what the boundaries between "boba-frontend" and "boba-components" is so this may be fuzzy in practice.
