Ask HN: Forum software similar to the style of HN posts/comments?

6 points by companyhen ↗ HN
I want to start a discussion board and was wondering if there was something I could use with threaded comments, and other features.

I'm more of a front-end dev and don't have enough experience to build something like this on my own.

Anyone want to lend me a hand?

Designed for just this sort of thing. It's fairly easy to get a basic install going on Heroku, also comes with moderation features.

Looks really slick. Even though I don't work with Ruby, I might just play around after reading this statement:

""Move back and forth freely between your laptop and your tablet, without the constant irritation of being told this forum has an app, do you want it?"
