Faridoon is a lightweight web application for saving and publishing memorable chat quotes. It provides a simple web UI for users to submit quotes and for admins to review and publish them publicly.

Key Features

  • Publish and browse short text chat quotes with a clean web interface
  • User registration and login with admin and non-admin roles
  • Approval workflow for guest and non-admin submissions
  • Automatic highlighting of usernames and cleanup of line breaks/odd characters
  • Configurable via environment variables or a configuration file; recommended Docker Compose deployment
  • Runs on PHP with a MySQL-compatible database; low resource requirements
  • Project privacy focus: no telemetry, no tracking, no commercial tiers

Use Cases

  • Collect and publish funny or notable chat quotes from team chats or community channels
  • Curate community-submitted quotes with an approval workflow before public posting
  • Maintain a lightweight, searchable archive of text-only quotes for reuse in blogs, social posts, or publications

Limitations and Considerations

  • Focused on plain text quotes; not designed for rich media, attachments, or complex content types
  • Minimal advanced search, tagging, or analytics functionality compared with full CMS platforms
  • Community-driven project with no commercial support; feature set is intentionally modest

Faridoon is suitable for individuals and communities that want a simple, privacy-respecting way to collect and share chat quotes. It emphasizes ease of deployment and low resource usage while keeping the feature set focused on text quote publishing.
