Show HN: Launch Hacker News like community on your Domain
Hi HN,
I built https://kocial.net, a platform that enables anyone to create their own branded community space, complete with features such as posts, reactions, and comments, similar to Hacker News, all without needing to write a single line of code.
You can use your own Custom domain as well for your community, like the community below:
- Indie Hackers - https://kocial.co
You can also create "invite-only" and "private" communities for your own private customer or fan base. I hope this helps.
I’d love feedback on the UX, performance, or any aspect of the niche.
Nice. Are there any communities already? I tried to search for a few phrases and looks like there is no community yet. Is this multi-tenant? UX is good but what about GTM/Growth? Have you thought about how will you get people to use kocial to create communities, over say, using Slack or Discord?
Yes, there are a few communities currently available, and you can find them here: https://kocial.net/communities. Some of them are not available for search and lists because of their visibility status of "private"
- Yes, it is multi-tenant; people can create their own community and use their own domain, like kocial.co. I have some plans, but I'm seeking feedback here first.
Nice!
I see it is missing options to upload a file on post.
Do you support multiple themes or is in ETA?
