I saw this earlier today but I didn't realize that forem/forem is the new repo name for thepracticaldev/dev.to until just now, when I clicked through a link in a blog post I'm working on. Redirects beautifully!

And congrats! ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒฑ

Had the same doubt but your comment helped. Cheers on the move to empower the community that in turn contributes back to the dev.to platform, Ben!

PS: If it helps, should Github searches for Dev.to now show the rebranded Forem repo herewith?

@ben now if we want to contribute to DEV, do we fork and contribute to Forem?

Yup. DEV is 100% running a configuration of Forem.

Gotcha. I was a bit worry because I have a Trello board with links to issues I'd like to contribute to. Thought the URL were gonna break but they didn't ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ

Probably you'll need to update the Readme file too as it only talks about Dev now ๐Ÿฆ„

Awesome! It will be interesting to see how contributing to the foundational forem repo will differ from each customization (e.g. dev.to) and how the entire ecosystem will continue to grow.
