Tinyboard - A lightweight PHP imageboard.

Tinyboard + vichan-devel

Tinyboard branch taking lightweightness somewhat more liberally. Running live at https://pl.vichan.net/ (Polish) and http://vichan.net/ (International; may be outdated).

It contains many changes from original Tinyboard, mainly in frontend area.

About

Tinyboard is a light-weight, fast, highly configurable and user-friendly imageboard software package released under a non-restrictive open-source license. It is written in PHP and has few dependencies.

Requirements

  1. PHP >= 5.2.5
  2. mbstring (--enable-mbstring)
  3. PHP-GD
  4. PHP-PDO (only MySQL is supported at the moment)

We try to make sure Tinyboard is compatible with all major web servers and operating systems. Tinyboard does not include an Apache .htaccess file nor does it need one.
