How It Works

1

Configure

Choose your subdomain, server region, and instance size. Add SMTP credentials for email delivery. Set your admin email.

2

Provision

We create a cloud server on Hetzner, install Discourse, configure SSL via Let's Encrypt, and set up DNS. Takes about 10-15 minutes.

3

Go Live

Your forum is ready. Log in as admin, customize your community, invite members, and start conversations. Full SSH access included.
