Proposal: Move to Gitlab/Github and restructuring

minthemiddle

I think that Laragon is a great product. And it should be used by as many people as possible.
One big drawback in my opinion is the project setup:

The folder structure is very confusing: What do all the files mean and where can I find the right file? (see below)
Sourceforge is not a hoster that many people trust. They had many scandals and their features are totally outdated. Github, Gitlab or Bitbucket are much better alternatives – and all free
There are no sources nor docs describing how we can contribute to the project – I bet many people would love to contribute but have no clue how.

My proposal – and I am more than ready to help you realizing it:

Move the project to Github, Gitlab or Bitbucket and restructure the folders

What do you think?

Folder structure is irritating
- Problems:
  - Recent release is hidden in: Home > releases > 3.2
  - I would expect the top *.exe to be the recent release
  - What does php5.4-WinXP (updated: 2015) do on top level?
  - What does php5.5 (updated: 2015) do on top level?

Folder Proposal

|-- releases
|   |-- full
|   |-- portable
|   |-- addons
|-- source
`-- README.txt
`-- CONTRIBUTE.txt

@minthemiddle That's a very good idea, I know some people who have urge to see the Laragon grow bigger and even better than it currently is! I will be more than happy to contribute.

@leokhoa I could set up the Github repo and do the basic structure, but as I cannot find a license agreement, I do not simply want to copy your files and do a potential copyright enfringement. Do you allow me to copy your files?

Do you have a Github handle so I can hand over the organization to you?

@minthemiddle : Sure, you can use your own Github

Wait, I found your Github with releases (https://github.com/leokhoa/laragon/releases/tag/3.2.3, Feb 18), but the sources are an empty webpage, and the rest of the project are rather old website commits (latest commit: 2016). I am totally confused now…
