# Flarum
|
|
|
|
**Delightfully simple forums.** [Flarum](http://flarum.org) is the next-generation forum software that makes online discussion fun again.

## Goals
|
|
|
|
- **Fast and simple.** No clutter, no bloat, no complex dependencies. Flarum is built with PHP so it's quick and easy to deploy. The interface is powered by Mithril, a highly performant JavaScript framework with a tiny footprint.
|
|
- **Beautiful and responsive.** This is forum software for humans. Flarum is carefully designed to be consistent and intuitive across platforms, out-of-the-box. It's backed by LESS, so themeing is a cinch.
|
|
- **Powerful and extensible.** Customize, extend, and integrate Flarum to suit your community. Flarum's architecture is amazingly flexible, prioritizing comprehensive APIs and great documentation.
|
|
- **Free and open.** Flarum is released under the [MIT license](https://github.com/flarum/flarum/blob/master/LICENSE.txt).

## Installation

An easier installation process will become a priority once Flarum is more stable.
