Besides consumer electronics industry, cloning activities are also very active in Internet field in China. Almost every creative website got cloned in China. Recently a frequently discussed topic in China’s Internet industry is a new website Zhihu.com, which is a clone of Quora. Zhihu is still in its beta version, and not open to the public, and content could be only seem by logined users. Only invited people can register.
Now it’s funny that Chinese developer Huacnlee started a project called Zheye. Zhuhu Zheye together is a phrase from ancient Chinese. Huacnlee has launched a demo site called zheye.org, from which we could see the project looks just exactly the same as Quora, from the design to features, at least at the front end. The most important thing is that Zheye is an open source project hosted on GitHub, so everybody can download the code to build their own quora alike website. The problem is that it’s developed with framework Ruby On Rails, webmasters with no professional programming skills might find it far more difficult to make it run than other PHP scripts.
