Anybody know how to install nodebb on Ubuntu ?

[julian]

Hi @testerool,

The directions listed in our project's readme are for Ubuntu based systems

[trevor]

I'm using NodeBB locally. I love it! I've been experimenting with the theming and just tinkering with stuff in my spare time. (easter egg)

Here's some examples:

That looks great @trevor!

[psychobunny]

hoooooly shit

WOW! haha

once you launch, this is totally going on our home page, if you don't mind!

[julian]

Yeah, that's fantastic... let's talk

[trevor]

Thanks @baris @psychobunny @julian! I really appreciate it! I've been a bit busy lately drawing up something unique but I have to learn those variables so that's slowing me down a bit. Otherwise the product is so awesome, its my motivation lol (if that makes sense)!

@psychobunny That would be an honor, I don't mind at all.

[StuartH]

@trevor that looks fantastic mate I hop you are going to release that as a plugin

[psychobunny]

but I have to learn those variables so that's slowing me down a bit.

don't hesitate to bother us if you run into a wall...

[ne1up]

Oh wow this whole site is beautiful! And your work looks great @trevor!

[trevor]

@StuartH @ne1up , thanks! It's definitely NOT finished by farrr...

What is that 'homepage' coded with? I unfortunately am only barely-qualified to touch HTML/CSS But I can break things like crazy for weeks on the road to getting it looking like something you'd have to pay for.

EDIT: Oh found your site on convoe? Love that sidebar! Looks fantastic @trevor

That's definitely not NodeBB on the homepage of the site. That is an old imageboard I'm going to retire soon to replace with NodeBB.

Oh right, I meant the index of NodeBB, the page with all the category boxes.

Your homepage is super interesting also though - I had looked at several message board options for speediness but in the end, eh.. Best I could find was some variant of 4chan or something.

[julian]

It's definitely debatable what part of NodeBB makes it so fast... is it our technology stack (web sockets + redis + node), or is it just simply the fact that it's a single page app?

Could be both, too...

[trevor]

I would create a new thread on this, but eh, theres no feature to split or merge threads... yet.

Here's what we got now.

I went flat and changed the color scheme with a few suggestions, yes, I gave in... LOL! I moved this to a test server for the development of the design working sections at a time (because I'm lazy...)

Next screenie to be continued...

[psychobunny]

I like this - I think our user pages definitely need some work so I'm glad I finally have somebody to steal some ideas from
