Derpibooru is the largest imageboard for the My Little Pony fan community in the world, catering to hundreds of thousands of users for nine consecutive years.
Until recently, the resource used a proprietary engine Booru-on-Rails, which was built on the framework of Ruby on Rails and MongoDB.
But now the site has moved to the engine Philomena, written in Elixir using the Phoenixframework, Elasticsearch, and PostgreSQL.
Along with the introduction of the new engine, both projects have been opened under the AGPL3 free license.
Today, Derpibooru can be considered the most advanced of free imageboards:
- a modern responsive interface;
- reverse search by uploaded images;;
- client API;;
- built-in forum;;
- galleries;;
- a fairly powerful tagging system and search for them;
- tag aliases and their abbreviations, combinations;

- a personal messaging and notification system;
