I believe you bud but I'm stuck with windows for now.

I consider myself a very patient guy but this NodeBB installation has toped my limit.

I want to install NodeBB so ....

• Why do I need Python? 2.7.8 ? why not 2.7.11 or 3.X?

• Why do I need imagemagick.org?

• Why do I need Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop?
  Why do I need them since nowhere in the install instructions are commands related to them?

• redis version 2.8.x or 3.0.x? Do I have to test out all version ?

BTW GitHub ( another pos install ) does not by default install NodeBB in so why does it reference that location?

Thank you.

Someone talked to me about NodeBB and decided to take a look. Looks promising so naturally the next step is to install it. And this is where I am. Main page stats "Start free trial" but I don't want a "free trial" because it also means $$$. I want to install the server so I try to find the Forums, but no Forums, maybe Community? Great, looks like the right place. Try to find the documents "how to install" section but sadly none are found. I have yet to find a single easy, legible and accessible link from any of the nodbb.org pages to the docs section. I had to go through freaking GOOGLE to find docs.nodebb.org.

I know that ppl want to be different, to differentiate themselves from others which is normal but seriously do not fart around around with the fundamentals. You mix and mash terms, You use "Community", which I guess is the "IN" word of the moment to get to Forums and once you are in "Community/Forums/ Technical Support" I see the use of Forums. Make up your mind ... Sigh!

Can anyone tell me where the docs.nodebb.org link is?
Yes I know the link is now in this post. I would like to know it's location on the official pages.

Thank you.
