Goals

Fast and simple. No clutter, no bloat, no complex dependencies. Phanbook is built with Phalcon PHP so it's quick and easy to deploy.
Beautiful and responsive. This is forum software for humans. Phanbook is carefully designed to be consistent and intuitive across platforms, out-of-the-box. It's backed by LESS, so themeing is a cinch.
Powerful and extensible. Customize, extend, and integrate Phanbook to suit your community. Phanbook's architecture is amazingly flexible, prioritizing comprehensive APIs and great documentation.
Free and open. Phanbook is released under the GNU General license.

Features

We want Phanbook to be the most powerful forum software out there, and we have a huge list of ideas that we want to implement. It will take time, but Phanbook’s flexible plugin system will mean we can release early and often. Here’s a snapshot of what we’ll be working on first:

Mutiple Theme
Spam Blocking
Markdown and rich text editing support
Powerful search
Single sign-on (Facebook, Twitter, GitHub, etc.)
Topic/category subscriptions and digest emails
File attachments
Post flagging/reporting and an intelligent auto-moderation system
Rewards, badges, and gamification
Q&A format and voting
