ircd-darenet is based on [http://evilnet.sf.net nefarious ircu], from the lovely people on the evilnet development team. We decided rather than always downloading and modifying the source every time a new version of nefarious was released, to instead fork and maintain our own branch. The amount of changes already made are quite significant. Such changes include the addition of a spam bot detection system, anti-drone flood system, additional operator privileges and tweaks to existing ones, some backend enhancements, new channel/user modes and tweaks to existing ones, and much more. | ircd-darenet is based on [http://evilnet.sf.net nefarious ircu], from the lovely people on the evilnet development team.

We have been following [http://qwebirc.org qwebirc]'s development for quite some time now, and have found it to be a great alternative to sites such as mibbit. Much thanks to Chris Porter aka slug for developing this great client, and freely releasing it. DareNET currently runs a modified version of it, dubbed webchat-darenet. Some modifications can be found [https://bitbucket.org/secretagent/qwebirc here]. | We have been following [http://qwebirc.org qwebirc]'s development for quite some time now, and have found it to be a great alternative to sites such as mibbit.

ircd-darenet
ircd-darenet is based on nefarious ircu, from the lovely people on the evilnet development team. We decided rather than always downloading and modifying the source every time a new version of nefarious was released, to instead fork and maintain our own branch. The amount of changes already made are quite significant. Such changes include the addition of a spam bot detection system, anti-drone flood system, additional operator privileges and tweaks to existing ones, some backend enhancements, new channel/user modes and tweaks to existing ones, and much more.

webchat-darenet
We have been following qwebirc's development for quite some time now, and have found it to be a great alternative to sites such as mibbit. Much thanks to Chris Porter aka slug for developing this great client, and freely releasing it. DareNET currently runs a modified version of it, dubbed webchat-darenet. Some modifications can be found here.
website-darenet
Developing PHP sites without a preconceived plan to manage them is asking for a headache. The goal of a framework is to make the process of writing web-based applications easier. Unfortunately, the vast majority of PHP frameworks currently out there don't really provide everything DareNET's next generation web site will require; therefore, we have started working on our own, custom framework. More information can be found here.
The current site is built upon the Joomla framework, and boosts a wide variety of custom components, modules and applications. It is integrated with our IRC network, which presently allows individuals to register a NickServ (DareNET) account, which can then be used to build user profiles, post to the forums, create social groups, chat on IRC and much more.
The site is programmed in PHP and uses MySQL as its database backend.
FAQ
Where can I download your projects?
While we do plan to eventually release our projects someday, your patience is required until it happens.
I found a bug, where can I report it?
Please send any bug reports to dev@darenet.org. Alternatively, if the project is public, you may submit it on the appropriate tracker here. Use your DareNET (NickServ) username to login.
What development environment does DareNET use?
Most of our projects are developed in the C programming language; however, other languages such as Python are used too. The source is targeted at most of the popular Unix platforms, and all releases are tested on Gentoo Linux and FreeBSD.
Most developers run a Unix-like operating system and use an open source tool chain with GCC, GNU Make, GDB, Autoconf, and so on. If you have contributed to open source software before, you will probably be familiar with these tools.
The complete list of required software to build any project developed by DareNET can be found in their respective installation instructions.
How do I get involved with DareNET Development?
Individuals interested in contributing to one of DareNET's various development projects (e.g. ircd-darenet, services-darenet, webchat-darenet, website-darenet, etc.) should send an email to dev@darenet.org. If you are involved with other projects, please note this in your email and possibly provide links to their project pages.
