Discourse Forum Client

v1.2.0

A desktop-only client for managing different discourse communities. Quickly change between your favorite communities. Alternatively you can just use this template as a way to favorite important sites.

The code is rough. If free time allows, I'll go back and update the code to match React best practices.

Built with React and Electron.

Don't feel comfortable downloading? No problem. Build instructions are below to package the app yourself.

Features

• Add your favorite sites with their own custom icon
• Auto recommends site logos from our defaultSites.json
• Version changes color when an upgrade is available
• Add as many sites as you want!
• Custom navigation handler for back/forward
