Project¶ ↑
Timeline is a simple web app aimed at allowing users to upload and concisely display media in chronological order. It is one of my Senior Capstone project at American University.
Status¶ ↑
Version One has been released and can be found at: capstone-timeline.herokuapp.com
-
Users can sign up and sign in to access their timelines.
-
Multiple timelines per user can be created, and pictures can be uploaded from the user’s computer.
-
Pictures are displayed in order of date and time, and users can click the picture to view more information.
-
Everything can be viewed, edited or deleted after creation.
Known Issues¶ ↑
-
bootstrap-timepicker began exhibiting issues that wouldn’t allow the user to enter a time. Until this has been resolved, users can manually enter times in an HH:MM 24 hour clock format.
