Hey, author of suomi.dev here.

First of all, thanks for taking interest in the project. I wasn't quite expecting someone posting it to HN. suomi.dev is a two week project into learning Elixir language, and as such, I wouldn't recommend using it as-is without auditing the source code first. Unfortunately the locale is hard-coded into the application layer itself, so skimming through the controllers or html templates for example could be a bit difficult for someone who doesn't understand Finnish.

You're not the only person to raise interest for a drop-in "HN-like" platform for their specific purpose though, so I'm considering turning the project to be more adaptable.

If you're not planning to use the current version of the project for anything _too_ serious, I could possibly work on a separate branch where I'll translate it to English. How's that sound?
