I can see the richness of the resources on Meta but usually advice is aimed at people with some basic coding knowledge. Our community (a network of people keen to build a more sustainable food system in our city) is made up of entirely non-coders and, so far, forum hasn’t been used- but members have…

For the basics of CSS, perhaps start here: https://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp That site is a pretty good reference even after you learn the basics, imo.

Yeah, meta is not a site focussed on teaching web development, so it is right to use other more appropriate resources on the internet. There are excellent guides on here, though, start with: Beginner's guide to using Discourse Themes and Developer’s guide to Discourse Themes If you don’t understan…

Well, the problem is not learning CSS or learning how to program in ruby, but the structure of discourse itself, how its interface is organize, how the tree of display elements work (in order to find the correct name of elements to change css styles), etc. For learning css and ruby programming ther…

Yes and it is of great utility, but does not provide a clear view of how the interface is organized, you need to navigate deep in the html to get it. I will read the tutorials posted to get a global idea of how discourse works and is designed.

Honestly, Discourse is a pretty complex app – more complex than a few written tutorials can teach. I highly recommend getting a solid base of understanding on Rails and Ember.js, then digging through the codebase, tracing codepaths as best as you can (though I will say this is not easy at first). Al…

This is interesting. Would you tend to suggest that Discourse is best for communities whose members include some coding knowledge, or would you say that at its most basic, it can work well for groups whose members have none (but didn’t want to use Facebook)? The wiki function, for example, is someth…

I don’t think the OP was asking about writing plugins?
