Community website platform

Draconis gives an organized community a proper home on the web: who it is, how it is structured, and how to join.

What it provides

A front door

A home page with one job: say what the community is and send the visitor to its main action.

Structure, shown clearly

Each department, division or team gets a card and a page of its own, all drawn from one data file.

Rules and documentation

Markdown pages with a page tree, links to every section, and search that runs in the visitor's browser.

Pages that wait until ready

Every optional page stays switched off until its content is written, so a site can open small and grow.

Your community. Your identity.#

Draconis provides the structure: the pages, the layout and the way everything behaves. Your community provides the identity: its name, its colors, its imagery, its words and the terms it uses.

The dragon at the top of this page is the default Draconis artwork. A community with artwork of its own uses that instead.

A community's identity is set up with its site and kept in files of its own. Draconis has no customization screen or admin area today.

One platform, separate sites#

Each site running on Draconis is a deployment: one community's settings, content and images, kept apart from the platform and from every other site. The platform supplies the rest, so every site gets the same layout, accessibility and behavior.

How deployments work

First deployment: Better Nights Roleplay#

Better Nights Roleplay is the first community built with Draconis, and the site the platform was built and tested against.

Built by Dragon Fhang Studios#

Draconis is made by Dragon Fhang Studios, a small studio that builds games, software and community tools.
