What is Discourse?
Discourse is a community platform for organizations that want to host discussions, support hubs, product feedback boards or internal team workspaces. It combines threaded topics, real-time chat, private messaging and email participation with moderation tools, groups and roles, themes and plugins, and an admin dashboard for tracking community health. It is open source, so the code can be audited, forked or self-hosted, and data can be exported at any time. Discourse is sold as managed hosting with a free trial, plus an Enterprise tier with dedicated infrastructure, SSO and onboarding support.

It can be out of date, so treat it as a starting point.
