- `DELETE /groups/:id(.:format) groups#destroy`
- `POST  /g(.:format) groups#create`
- `DELETE /g/:id(.:format) groups#destroy`
- `GET /posts(.:format) posts#index`

Development

To get your environment setup, follow the community setup guide for your operating system.

  1. If you're on macOS, try the macOS development guide.
  2. If you're on Ubuntu, try the Ubuntu development guide.
  3. If you're on Windows, try the Windows 10 development guide.

If you're familiar with how Rails works and are comfortable setting up your own environment, you can also try out the Discourse Advanced Developer Guide, which is aimed primarily at Ubuntu and macOS environments.

Before you get started, ensure you have the following minimum versions: Ruby 3.2+, PostgreSQL 13, Redis 7. If you're having trouble, please see our TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE first!

Setting up Discourse

If you want to set up a Discourse forum for production use, see our Discourse Install Guide.

If you're looking for business class hosting, see discourse.org/buy.

Requirements

Discourse is built for the next 10 years of the Internet, so our requirements are high.

Discourse supports the latest, stable releases of all major browsers and platforms:

Browsers Tablets Phones
Apple Safari iPadOS iOS
Google Chrome Android Android
Microsoft Edge
Mozilla Firefox

Additionally, we aim to support Safari on iOS 15.7+.

Built With

  • Ruby on Rails — Our back end API is a Rails app. It responds to requests RESTfully in JSON.
  • Ember.js — Our front end is an Ember.js app that communicates with the Rails API.
  • PostgreSQL — Our main data store is in Postgres.
  • Redis — We use Redis as a cache and for transient data.
  • BrowserStack — We use BrowserStack to test on real devices and browsers.

Plus lots of Ruby Gems, a complete list of which is at /main/Gemfile.
