Smart contract development
Core Solidity contract built and finalized for mainnet.
Live on Ethereum
The decentralized public square on Ethereum.
Short posts. Long articles. Zero indexers. Zero databases. Your words — written directly to the chain and owned by you.
Why this is a revolution
EtherForum isn’t “web2 with a wallet.” It’s a publishing surface that lives on Ethereum — no off-chain database, no shadow indexer, no silent edits.
Writes directly to Ethereum
Posts, comments, reactions, follows — all state is on-chain and verifiable by anyone.
No indexer. No DB.
Deterministic IDs and view functions power timelines without centralized infrastructure.
Structured for clients
Per-user counters, username mapping, reaction maps — simple reads for any frontend.
Zero admin keys
No owner role to confiscate content. Authors control edits and visibility of their own posts.
Short + long-form
Fire off quick thoughts or publish deep articles — both live side-by-side on-chain.
Portable & composable
Any community can build a client, indexer, or analytics layer. Data already lives on Ethereum.
Markdown-native posts
Rich text & images via Markdown; content stored as text on-chain and rendered by clients.
Public, verifiable history
Every post, edit, and hide is an on-chain state change — auditable and tamper-evident.
Runs without the official site
Use alternative frontends or call the contract from any RPC — docs show how.
Features
A fast, clean UI on top of a lean Solidity core.
Usernames & profiles
Case-insensitive usernames, nicknames, bios, links, avatars, covers — on-chain.
Create, edit, pin
Publish posts, edit your own, and pin a favorite — with visible on-chain history.
Comments
Reply to posts with on-chain comments; every comment has a deterministic ID.
Reposts
Reshare any post with optional commentary — tracked as its own on-chain post.
Reactions & follows
Per-address reactions and follow graph in contract state; no third-party DB.
Markdown-native editor
Headings, bold/italic, links, lists, quotes, code blocks — straightforward Markdown.
Image embeds
Embed images with  and let clients render rich posts.
Deterministic reads
Fetch via globalPostCount & getGlobalPostId(user,n). See docs.
Transparency by design
All state accessible via view functions — perfect for explorers & dashboards.
On-chain architecture
Minimal structs, deterministic IDs, and pure view reads — a contract-first design any client can query without indexers.
Core structs
UserBasic, UserProfile, UserStats, Post, Comment — minimal, expressive, and gas-conscious.
Deterministic indexing
Global counter globalPostCount, per-user counters, and mappings make timelines derivable without an external indexer.
Key functions
createAccount, createPost, createRepost, createComment, reactToPost, followUser, pinPost, plus rich get* views for UIs.
Security posture
No privileged owner. Author-only edits/hides. Sanitized username rules. Simple, auditable state.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions.
Is EtherForum live?
Yes. Open the app and post — short or long form — directly on Ethereum.
Do you use a database or indexer?
No. The protocol’s data model allows clients to read directly from the contract using deterministic IDs and view functions.
Does the editor support Markdown and images?
Yes. Use Markdown for headings, bold, italic, links, lists, quotes, inline code, and code blocks. Embed images with . The content is stored on-chain as text and rendered richly in the UI.
Is there governance?
No. EtherForum is a publishing surface. There’s no token-based content governance.
Can anyone ban EtherForum?
EtherForum posts, comments, and reactions are written directly to Ethereum. There is no central database and no admin role that can delete or shadow-edit your content.
Can I use EtherForum if the domain is seized or the site is offline?
Yes. Anyone can interact with the smart contract directly via any EVM wallet, a custom frontend, or a local client. Frontends are replaceable — the data and methods live on-chain.
How do I verify content on-chain?
Use the contract’s view functions (e.g., getPost(id), getComment(postId, commentId), getUserBasic(address)) from any Ethereum RPC to independently validate posts and profiles.
Do you rely on an indexer or database?
No. Clients can derive timelines from deterministic counters like globalPostCount and user mappings without a centralized index.
Are there posting fees?
You pay standard Ethereum gas to write. Reading is free through public RPCs.
