About Forem

Forem is open source software designed to empower communities. Created by the team behind DEV and Future, Forem provides the foundation for building inclusive, sustainable, and vibrant online communities. Our mission is to enable knowledge sharing and meaningful connections across any passion, profession, or interest.

Technical Details

Our codebase is available on GitHub, where we maintain detailed documentation for developers and community builders. While we encourage inspection and learning from our code, our primary focus is on providing stable, secure software for the communities we host.

Leadership & Vision

Forem was founded by Ben Halpern, Jess Lee, and Peter Frank, (“PB&J”) who saw the need for better community software while building DEV, the first forem.
