I think this is amazing
If the Forem team won't do that, because I need that feature for my project that I've been working on, I plan to send my codes with Pull Request on GitHub to Forem project.

Let’s talk though. It needs to be cohesive.
The concept of linking to a Q/A area as shown in that cover pic is definitely interesting. As is the whole idea, of course.
I think the question is: What concepts do we create to allow for this? Any post can be a question, and we should definitely keep things simple and re-usable.
We also have tags, which help categorize content. We kind of use these as indications for Q/A, but it is a bit clunky.
There could be another spectrum of labeling a post as a "type", and then it would be easy enough to give it a section as well.
What we con't want is a bunch of knobs... But we do want a clear area for things that deserve to have a clear area. :)
Hey! Piggy backing off of Ben here - While this is not specifically a "feature" - it can be done with some moderation and a small work around.
Here's how I would set this up:
1) Create three tags
Help,Unsolved,Solved2) When a question is asked, have the user add each tag:
HelpandUnsolved3) Once the question is answer, the author or a moderator can remove the
Unsolvedtag and replace it with theSolvedtagAs Ben stated, tags are your friend!
Is there a document to see all the features of forem in production (as noticible in dev.to) and top priority enhancements in the pipe line?
I know a bit about this effort in business applications. Developing a custom solution for a business unit and riding on its super success, trying to rewrite it make it generic for other business units to adapt.
