Software developers need a place to collaborate and hash out ideas. Listservs are opaque and too old-school, and apps such as Discord are great for real-time chat, but not for longer or deeper discussions. A forum can help connect your developer community in a more lasting way, and creates true organic content that can easily be shared and searched.
Create a true contributor community. Developers from disparate backgrounds and regions can truly connect via a community forum, helping overall engagement and interest in your project.
Sharing made easier. Forums provide a great way for developers to share solutions and ideas, which in turn can help drive traffic and increase SEO rankings, creating a virtuous cycle.
Keep the conversation respectful and safe. Moderation tools and a robust privileges system help you weed out spammers and trolls, and reduce abuse.
“When we decided it was time to revamp our community we contemplated several possible solutions. We opted for NodeBB, and we couldn't be happier. Numbers confirm that our user engagement skyrocketed. There was not a single comment from our users that would say that the old forums were better which, I think, speaks for itself.”
“Working with the fantastic team at NodeBB (highly recommended, by the way), we quickly spun up a new Q&A using our existing database. We actually saw an increase in traffic, nearly starting at day one. In fact, in the two months after the migration, organic Google traffic to Q&A pages was up nearly 19%. This was definitely a delightful migration.”
