I know I know discourse is not a Q&A platform, and you might not believe in negative votes, etc, as mentioned in other posts. This is not a question about the philosophy, it is a technical question, so please proceed with technical answers.
I think a forum platform like discourse, and a Q&A platform like SO have a lot in common. On the other hand, despite many tries, a polished, high quality, open source clone of SO with a large community and high momentum like discourse does not yet exist. So I was wondering how easy, or difficult, would it be to create a plugin that would convert discourse into stackoverflow?
Would this imaginary plugin be something ‘hacky’ that only would work as a prototype, or would be reliable enough for production?
Note1 : please turn your question into a wiki so we can collaboratively assess this issue’s progress.
Note2 : As of Fall 2018, Stackoverflow opens a team service https://stackoverflow.com/pricing
Hello,
I am not a very expert Ruby on Rails Developer. I finished my last project Bartering Apps and my next one will be a like StackOverflow discussion forum, because I am very interested in how developers find solutions to problems. Once that I implemented the current state of the art Discourse Forum plus Plugins, I could try to develop the following points:
How to get answer’s comments? (stackoverflow-like & tiny)
Downvotes…
How to have all post (answers) as wiki by default? (maybe)
My only hope is that I get through it
Wish me luck, I hope I am not posting something inappropriate for this discussion..
I would need some help and directions, I start one reading some discourse material and maybe cloning the github project.
Obrigado por esta lista. Seria justo assumir que os ‘Plugins Existentes’ listados continuam estáveis e funcionam bem nas versões mais recentes do Discourse? Os plugins têm alguma noção padrão de “qualidade” em relação às versões do Discourse?
Além disso, nos últimos 5 anos, algum plugin mais novo foi adicionado que possa ajudar a aproximar ainda mais o Discourse do SO em termos de experiência do usuário e visual?
Então, existe uma maneira de o botão “+ Novo Tópico” ser alterado para “+ Fazer Nova Pergunta”?
E é um comportamento padrão do Discourse (pronto para uso) fazer uma pesquisa inteligente com base no texto parcial ou completo da pergunta inserida para ver se uma pergunta semelhante já existe ou não, e verificar com o autor se essas perguntas já respondem à sua pergunta?
