Hi, I’m looking to set up a discourse forum for a community of autistic students and their parents/carers in the UK. We currently have no server and are open to either serving ourselves or outsourcing. I run another discourse forum but am not an expert on discourse and we might want to have a ‘supported’ deployment of some kind. We want to work with the users to understand how we might adapt the look and feel of the vanilla discourse to better meet their specific needs. Also we would need our discourse branded to give it an identity. I assume this will not go beyond creating a custom stylesheet. We may also need some custom tooling for integration of existing (or new) apps with discourse. For example, users may have a simple questionnaire app and we’d like them to be able to submit basic data and for this to automatically generate a forum post. The project timing is under discussion but we expect it would not be until the spring. Possibly early summer. In terms of budget, I was hoping to get an idea from you guys about how much to budget for these things. The basic pieces are: 1. Forum setup/hosting 2. Forum customisation/branding (theme?) 3. Standardised, automated posting from an existing or new app (web/native?) I get that number three is not well specified. I will have more information on this eventually. We are preparing a funding application right now and so I need to know how much to allocate and also, are there people here who are interested in such a project? We are hoping that the addition of an online place where the community can share experiences will have a positive effect. So, what kind of cost are we looking at and are there people here who are interested? --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/autism-redesign-deployment/74584)._
