If you’ve got your own ideas about how it can be improved, you know what to do!

Built in PHP and MySQL and deployed on your web site (no dependence on external services), this functionality and more is ready to use:
It’s frustrating when tools aren’t documented well enough to use. I’ve written a setup guide in plain English, which contains what you need to know to get motoring…
