- Description
- Bonfire provides a federated platform for scientific preprint communities, enabling decentralized social networking and collaboration through W3C ActivityPub standards.

Key features include threaded discussions, content moderation tools, and customizable community spaces tailored for academic workflows. This open-source solution specifically addresses the needs of preprint repositories by supporting versioned documents, citation networks, and transparent peer feedback.
