EmberForgery is a lightweight website builder that allows creators to host their own content, set their own rules, and create online communities that they own.

In addition, it's designed to integrate into the FlareNetwork, which is a network of websites intended for a new way to discover content on the internet.

What's included in the FlareNetwork?

FlareNetwork.com

FlareNetwork is a social platform free from ads and algorithms. Please read my project breakdown for more information.

FlareFinder.net

FlareFinder is a search engine that specifically lists websites created with EmberForgery.

How does EmberForgery work?

EmberForgery is still in it's very early stages. FlareNetwork will be released first.

However, EmberForgery is designed to be a minimal, easy to use, website builder. It doesn't allow for full website customization, but rather it's designed to be a cohesive experience so users know that they are on a website connected to the FlareNetwork.

In the images above we can start to get the idea of how people will create websites and content. The theme builder is quite simple, rather than a drag and drop editor, the theme is already pre-designed and the creator can edit the aesthetic of the website to math their personality.

The content editor supports blog content in it's current form but it will be released to support blogs, videos, images, and other basic content forms.
