Plugin will be the recommended option.
Plugin is easier to install and just go for it. Running a sub directory will require more wordpress and name server setup knowledge including potential secondary wp installation.
I host 1000s of WordPress sites.
Here are some rules to keep your sanity working with WordPress.
1) Never. Ever. Ever. Use any type of specialized theme.
2) So, avoid using a Question + Answer Theme.
3) You'll avoid specialized themes because...
a) This type of theme's coding is usually substandard, unless you find it in the WordPress theme repository.
b) This type of theme becomes abandonware (developer's die or lose interest) at some point.
c) Changes in PHP + WordPress internal APIs usually kills this type of theme in some way, so at some point a PHP or WordPress update will kill your site.
4) Do use a solid + simple theme, like GeneratePress which lives in the WordPress repository, so must pass all the PHP + WordPress unit tests, before any update becomes available through the repository.
5) Do use a Q&A plugin + every plugin must be vetted.
For example, when I client asks me to vet a plugin, I do these steps...
a) Run phpcs on the plugin to ensure it works with PHP-7.4 (latest stable) PHP.
b) Install the plugin on a test site + go through entire setup, then check WordPress debug logs for diagnostic messages.
c) If #5b surfaces minor fixes, then these fixes are requested of the developer + if the developer fixes their code quickly + correctly, plugin testing continues. If developers are unresponsive or unable to fix their code, this plugin + company are blacklisted from any future use on any site I host.
d) If plugin produces horrible problems in the WordPress debug log, then the plugin + company are blacklisted from any future use on any site I host.
6) If the plugin is in the WordPress repository, check the issue tracker for the plugin + related company. If the company fixes all support issues quickly, you likely have a great company to work with. If you see issues which are months or years old with no response, this plugin + company best be added to your blacklist.
Summary: Use WordPress issue tracker (when possible), then phpcs + the WordPress debug log to determine which plugins may be useful.
Short answer will be: you don't need any specific tools for this. Just use Gutenberg (in-built editor) to style your Q&A page and that's it.

Can a WordPress site be converted into an iOS app?
Be careful when simply wrapping things into a mobile app. This can backfire on you and you could be presented with some very harsh edge cases. PHP isn't going to be encapsulated so much as the HTML/CSS/JavaScript. So keep in mind your mobile application could likely be in a position of requiring an online connection to work (because it must interface with your existing hosted WordPress site). This could also mean your hosting solution needs to be evaluated to ensure you can handle any increased traffic (and those traffic patterns could be different when coming from a mobile app that perhaps loads things the user doesn't see right away, accesses content that may not be cached, etc.). You want to ensure your server doesn't go down because then your mobile app would be "down" as well. That said... Things like Phonegap (web views) are a wonderful idea for utility apps because the performance is good enough for those (and hey even some games) and they end up being easily ported across many mobile operating systems. I would look into Phonegap, Appgyver (a new and totally awesome one because parts of it will utilize the native OS and your app will feel more responsive), Appcelerator Titanium, and perhaps even the new Famo.us one. Also take a look at the Ionic Framework for some further ideas about mobile UI and what you can do with these web view style apps.TM

What Wordpress Plugins is the best for creating a Multi-Level Affiliate Marketing program?
There is a lot of points in your question which unless someone has the exact same setup as you - I don't think you will get the answers you are looking for. I believe you should limit it by asking yourself: What is the ONE thing the MLM plugin I am looking for can do so that it achieves the maximum amount of result to my business by using it? IMHO - it would be the ability to set commissions for the products you sell and award commissions to those affiliates that actually earn you sales. All other features, while nice, are ancillary features that from the perspective of the affiliate - don't really need in order to be successful. In that regard - I would suggest https://affiliatewp.com/. When it comes to running affiliate programs on WP sites, it wins out as the best in my experience. Hope this helps! Glad to assist any further if you need help.TB

How much should I charge to develop a WordPress site?
Take the # of hours it takes you to do it and charge $50/hour. That's the price. Eventually you can charge $100/hour but that will require a bigger customer. If the customer is small < $1M in gross sales per year - charge $50/hour If the customer id medium < $1-5M / sales - charge $75 Over $5M - charge $100 The challenge you'll face is clearly defining the expectations and handoff so that you're not stuck doing stuff that you can charge for and always getting interrupted from past customers.DM
