Vichan is a gem.
The logo.

vichan, also known as vichan-devel, is the most popular imageboard software within the soysphere, and other places.. It is a free light-weight, fast, highly configurable and user-friendly imageboard software package and it is a fork of another imageboard software named TinyIB. It is written in PHP and has few dependencies.

It is less technologically advanced compared to LynxChan but is easier to fork/modify.

The official github repository and installation guides can be found at https://github.com/vichan-devel/vichan

Fork's of vichan

  • VinnyFork

Vinluv's fork of vichan used on sidson.city; the biggest change about it is the sidebar and deletion of a homepage its the hardest to use as it runs on a very old version of vichan.

  • RuFork

Yoot’s fork of vichan made for his 1 PPD website Ruzly, also known as Garty, or Frog Pond[Marge...]. It has a topbar and layout more similar to JSchan, however.

  • Kikemin's fork

based off the shemmy code, used on the chinny and binny[ev&doe it's just a frontend], Referred to as "gigglegrid"

  • Kuz's fork

the current fork used on soyjak.party, is the most notable and best designed and is mainly why Kuz was formerly considered one of the coders of vichan because of xis coding skills.

  • Shemmy Fork

used on the Shemmy, basically a mix of Kuz's fork, Kara's fork and Kikemin's fork

  • Kara's Fork

used on the old and new version of the Gacky, this one actually has a public source release but because it was made by a failtroll pedonigger and is rumored to contain malicious code it should not be used.

The rangeban and datamining code are utilized on the Shemmy and Chinny, with the rangeban blocking Australia, the UK, Kuwait, and India by default, the datamining (pearl.js) it tracks your screen resolution, if your device is mobile, if you are using a VPN, Tuxler, and Discord respectively, it also stores data to your localstorage and cookies to store a "tainted session" that persists between browser resets (use incognito to get around this), and sends a string for validation such as "karachan" (or "shemmy" in the case of the Shemmy). Most of these measures can be avoided by using incognito mode and a VPN and changing your screen resolution and window size.
