toofake: a bereal viewer

a client for bereal.com!

want to stalk your friends, family, or ex without posting your own bereal?
toofake gives the ability to view bereals and post custom bereals without ever having to click on that annoying notification


this is a work in progress!

  • commenting does not refresh the comments; you have to manually refresh
  • posting any image as a beareal has been added but still is buggy! Make sure to upload both images!
  • the location? and public? toggles still don't do anything yet
  • there might still be refresh auth token issues
  • still need better mobile resize support
  • there are still countless bugs (send them over)

how to run locally

  • you need the correct python libraries installed (flask, dotenv, geopy, pendulum, Pillow, humanfriendly, and some others)
    • in the server directory run: pip install -r requirements.txt
  • if you would like better location accuracy, create a .env file in the server directory and add a google maps api key labeled GAPI='your_key'. Otherwise ignore.
  • start flask server on api.py
  • npm start in client directory

big shoutout to the team at BeFake for exposing many of the api endpoints!
