POP Forums

=========

A forum and Q&A application with real-time updating, image uploading and private message chat in multiple languages.

The main branch is now the work-in-progress for future versions running on .NET 8+. The v20.x branch is v20.x, running on .NET 7. The v19.x branch is v19.x, running on .NET 6. If you're looking for the version that works on .NET Framework 4.5+ with MVC 5, check out v13.0.2.

Roadmap:

The v20 release has a new OAuth-Only mode that allows the forum to run privately with an external identity provider. Much of the rest of the release includes refactoring and more subtle improvements.
