This web app: I've just recently gotten into video essays, which are long-form, in-depth videos about a certain topic. Share your favorites!
Time spent: 10 hours spent in total
The following required functionality is completed:
- A create form that allows the user to create posts
- Posts have a title and optionally additional textual content and/or an image added as an external image URL
- A home feed displaying previously created posts
- By default, the time created, title, and number of upvotes for each post is shown on the feed
- Clicking on a post shall direct the user to a new page for the selected post
- Users can sort posts by either their created time or upvotes count
- Users can search for posts by title
- A separate post page for each created post, where any additional information is shown is linked whenever a user clicks a post
- Users can leave comments underneath a post on the post's separate page
- Each post should have an upvote button on the post's page. Each click increases its upvotes count by one and users can upvote any number of times
- A previously created post can be edited or deleted from its post page
The following optional features are implemented:
- Users can only edit and deleted posts or delete comments by entering the secret key, which is set by the user during post creation
- Upon launching the web app, the user is assigned a random user ID. It will be associated with all posts and comments that they make and displayed on them.
- Users can repost a previous post by referencing its post ID. On the post page of the new post, the referenced post is displayed and linked, creating a thread
- Users can customize the interface of the web app
- Users can share and view web videos
- Users can set flags while creating a post. Then users can filter posts by flags on the home feed.
- Users can upload images directly from their local machine as an image file
- Display a loading animation whenever data is being fetched
Here's a walkthrough of implemented user stories:
