Hey guys, I want to code up a Forum like this one for the coding club at my college. What Languages would you suggest for a project like this? This will only be used by the club members so about 75 total people. Thanks so much!
Which "efficient"? Efficient (UI or backend) coding? Efficient (lightweight) on RAM? Efficient, as in fast?
In most cases it's as "efficient" as you will make it, if you use your stack properly you will have no problems. Things that are a bit overkill for your needs: C/C++ or something even closer to metal, Java or C# webapp, unless you really want to learn C# or Java, you can make them "efficient" too.
Just go with what you want to learn, most languages have means to write such things.
Apache server, with a MySQL backend, using php, jquery, and ajax. CSS3 for the most lightweight framework.
