### Building Your Community
Be patient! Building communities is hard. Before launching, be sure to:
1. Define your community's purpose in a pinned or banner topic.
2. Seed the discussion with interesting topics.
3. Commit to visiting and participating regularly.
4. Link your community so people can find it.

### Maintenance
- One CPU and 1GB of memory, with swap, is the minimum for a basic Discourse community. As your community grows you may need more memory or CPU resources.
