> To run Flarum, you will need:

* Apache (with mod_rewrite enabled) or Nginx

* PHP 7.3+ with the following extensions: curl, dom, fileinfo, gd, json, mbstring, openssl, pdo_mysql, tokenizer, zip MySQL 5.6+/8.0.23+ or MariaDB 10.0.5+

* SSH (command-line) access to run Composer

Unfortunately the dependencies are not as simple as I hoped (other than SSH). Are there single binary forum software (perhaps written in Go/Rust) that use SQLite, that people have experience with?

I guess I am looking for the Caddy of forum software.

uses sqlite, is actively improved, they claim the nim language makes small cross-platform binaries but none for this release it seems.


This is a bog standard LAMP setup, they just specified the specific php modules which might not be enabled by default (but usually are). Not sure what's complex about it, I'm sure you can drop it into a default XAMPP install and run.


You can ;) We are not losing sight of the lowly shared hosting users. The only tough requirement - which many shared hosting companies already provide - is commandline/ssh access so you can use/install composer.
