Hi folks,<p>My father has a non-profit org called Manthan (http://www.manthanindia.com/). They have a healthy amount of article sharing + discussion on their Facebook and Yahoo group. I'm looking to start off a segment for high schoolers, Manthan for Teenagers, and want to move that and the above to an independent discussion platform for various reasons.<p>What is a good (= easy, simple, clean) way to create a platform like HN? Are there existing solutions, possibly open source, that I could build off? Even a plug-in would work. I couldn't find anything myself.<p>Any help is appreciated!
Hey,
Manthan seems like a great platform.
For your discussion platform you could check out <a href="http://www.appyoda.io/" rel="nofollow">http://www.appyoda.io/</a>
We are a Pune based startup in the Backend as a Service arena. Appyoda is an application we built on our platform.
Do give it a try.
