There are many different engines that support Danbooru style websites, but only a few of them are really suitable for large sites.

  • MoeBooru (Current Pick) - Used by yande.re, and maintained in production. It is a full featured fork of Danbooru in Ruby with all the bells and whistles. Requires PostgreSQL.
  • https://github.com/moebooru/moebooru

  • Gelbooru 0.3 (Future) - If the devs ever get enough funding to get their shit together, they will open source their new and improved Gelbooru engine. That would be awesome to use. Uses Python and is solid stuff.
  • Gelbooru 0.2.x - Safebooru uses this version, which runs on PHP.
  • MyImouto - Port of Moebooru to PHP.
