Inspiration
We were curious to see what EyeEm's machine learning thought was beautiful and ugly so we wanted to prod the API til we found out
What it does
Users with passwordless membership upload photos from their phone or their computer to the site. we store the photo on amazon and then check eyeem's aesthetic rating and rank the photos accordingly.
How I built it
We split into front end and backend. backend uses cakephp for rapid prototyping and easy launch. front end uses javascript and sass
Challenges I ran into
renaming files during upload to amazon was a larger problem than we thought it would be. we ended up having to save the file to our server temporarily under a desired name and then moving it to amazon.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
being able to use the camera directly in a web app
What I learned
how easy it was to use a remote db on local development
What's next for float.photo
