BinktermPHP is now a full self-hostable BBS platform. A sysop can stand up an instance, connect it to one or more FTN networks, run door games (browser-native or classic DOS), host file areas, serve a Gemini capsule, accept QWK mail clients, bridge to mesh radio nodes, and offer a real-time browser-based community interface -- all from one PHP application.
