Fappe should use a frappe built app for forum instead of this built on discourse
Why should Frappe invest time and resources into reinventing the wheel for something outside their core objectives? From my perspective, Discourse is an excellent forum solution that doesn’t tie up valuable human resources.
Because although Frappe can do everything, he doesn’t always have to do everything😄.
Discourse is a mature solution, specifically optimized for forums, with years of development and a very active community behind it. In this case, I prefer to focus on building better tools with Frappe… and not reinvent a wheel that is already spinning quite well!
That being said, if anyone is brave enough to build an entire forum on Frappe, we’ll be here to cheer them on!

Frappe’s has built erpnext, hrms
Commit Company has built Raven(almost slack clone)
All these apps are more than just apps, these are proof of concepts that frappe framework is flexible enought to accomodate such complex apps. Each app frappe builds serves as a confidence booster in the dev community. I would not have known frappe’s strength if I had not seen erpnext, raven, etc.
Frappe should stop using discourse to boost developer confidence in the frappe framework…
