so uh i dunno

Learn how to make a basic mysql server, and learn the basics of php and how to make a connection between those two, doesnt take that many code to make something better than 4chan
>>51258445
Waha's either Kareha or Wakaba require no programming experience. You need a webserver (and a mysql database for latter) and the ability to follow a simple point-by-point guide.

> better than 4chan
Would most likely require more than 10 thousands lines of code at least.

1. Learn about databases, SQL on:
https://www.codecademy.com/learn/learn-sql
2. Learn about basic programming, PHP on:
https://www.codecademy.com/learn/php
3. Create your own awesome imageboard with what you have learned

A few lines of decent code then.

There is too much functionality to implement.
Of course, I include userside javascript, html and css code. But server-side is still going to be at least 5 thousand.

>doesnt take that many code to make something better than 4chan
Unlike 4chan, reddit is fully open source.
>>51261464
There's no way to prove that reddit is actually running the code they opensource as opposed to adding some unreleased bits.

thanks man is there any imageboard software? i was thinking of using tinyboard. and lastly how expensive is it to maintain a server
>>51258445
Write it in Common Lisp + Caveman2
>>51263335
hmm any benefits i never heard of lisp nor caveman.
>>51263479
You'll have fun.

Running a static imageboard would be easier for a beginner. That just involved serve static files and writing them to the right places.
TinyIB
>>51259108
Do you need a larger server for a anonymous image board
>>51264136
how does a static one work and how diffrent is it from 4chan
>>51264922
it depends on the traffic i may build an itx machine with 2-4 gb ram
>>51264761
sure ill use tinyib so do i have to install php on a server or what (judging by the github instructions)
