    @mschwartz one of the issues with migration to TS is the plugin system. NodeBB is using some of the flexibility of CommonJS that becomes a liability when adding server-side builds. Plugins use require.main.require, and I'm honestly not sure how well this works with TypeScript - it definitely doesn't work with IntelliSense (so plugins wouldn't even get the typing by default unfortunately), but I don't remember if I was testing tsc when I looked into using ES6 imports and building server-side code...

    It'd be relatively simple to go Svelte way and use JSDoc for type checking with TS but without compilation though, just some work on adding the types and fixing issues found that way πŸ™‚ Still, one would need some more work for it to help plugin developers and not just core.

    I thought about it,
    It's not that complicated at all.
    The question is what kind of meeting are we going for...
    About a big meeting, with screen sharing, moderators, etc.
    Or you go for a type of personal meeting, like the original idea, that there is such a button in the chat, of a conversation, and then it's like a WhatsApp conversation, where you just see each other... That's it, without extensive options...

    @julian what are you saying?

    It looks like the discussion content in this topics has become outdated, so should I refer to the docs site directly instead?

    I want to customize the default home page and post detail page, which involves layout and style customization, so, am I correct to develop a new theme for this?
