What is Frond?
Frond is a new platform for online community. Because it’s built from threads instead of chat, conversations are deeper, easier to follow, and scale automatically.
Problem
Online community platforms often rely on chat-based interactions, which can make conversations shallow, difficult to follow, and challenging to scale as communities grow.
