Other webapps derived from nodebb, non-forum?

[Jens]

Does anyone know of web apps that were built on top of nodebb?
Like a

• Q&A platform,
• a poll community for decision making,
• a ticket system,
• a publishing platform

Obviously not - 320 topic views, no reply

I'm not familiar with any. Seems like an odd thing to do.

nodebb is a wonderful place

Lack of a complete API support. Such as live stream.
I don't think Nodebb is a good choice to develop web/phone apps.

A API-first system will be more interesting in mobile phone age.

What?

[KyleTryon]

Don't we have an API https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-write-api/blob/master/routes/v2/readme.md ?

@kyletryon Yup! That's what I don't get.

Literally everything in the forum has an API, and streaming content is definitely included, it's literally the purpose of websockets.

@yariplus
Yes, it's true, almost everything in the forum has an API.
Then websockets? I don't see a websocket stream interface which client/app can get notifies, mentions.

[yariplus]

They would get them by joining the room online_users and uid_UID
