Show HN: Spirit, modern django based forum software (spirit-project.com)

1 points by nitely 12y ago ↗ HN

I finally got something worthy of posting here. Spirit is a modern forum software written on python employing django's framework.

It has many of the features available on more known solutions. It is easy to integrate to preexistent Django projects, since it works as any other app. I think it is worth a look for any Pythonist out there. Also, it has over 250 test cases!

If you are at an early enough stage to re-think the UI, one my my main gripes with existing forums is that when I hit reply they navigate me away to a login page. I mostly give up and close the tab. Instead of this, make the login form a simple popup, and log me in in place. Even make signup in place. You'll win hearts and users :)

That would be a nice improvement! I'll get it done in the next release. Thanks, any suggestion is welcome ;)
