First of all, thank you all for the immense support that I got in the last month. Now, I need some help/suggestion on deploying discourse in production.

I have 6 scripts under `scripts/` in production. These scripts are vital for the functionalities of the plugins and also importing of data from an old forum.

(No Discourse code has been modified. The scripts are all new, written by me)

Now, how do I go about deploying discourse in production along with these scripts.  
Should I fork the official Discourse repo and add my scripts to the forked repo and then use that repo ?  
Is this viable ?  
If not, can you all provide me some insights on how to go about doing this ?

Thanks a lot!

You can make them into a plugin
