Pretty cool to see these new iterations of forums being built. Especially with those that are moving away from the php/mysql space.
 
This looks great from the screenshots at least. It also seems that this one is actively being developed too since the last commit was made three days ago! Also cool to see another software branching out and using a different programming language instead of php. I will be keeping an eye out on this platform!
