Photoshare

Photoshare is a learning app for Go and ReactJS.

The final aim:

• User can create posts with photos.
• User can make posts private/public.
• Other users can comment on posts.
• User can switch comments on/off.
• Simple search.
• Email user when someone comments on their posts.
• RSS feeds on all posts.
• Admins can edit/delete all posts and enable/disable user accounts.
• Users can sign up/in with at least one oauth client (Google, Facebook, Twitter)
• Runs on PostgreSQL backend.
• Twitter Boostrap-based design (yawn, but I'm not a designer...)
• Fully tested (or as much as possible) in front and backend.
• We can host the whole thing on Heroku/S3.

Of course not all of the above will happen at once, rather incremental steps.

Getting started

You need Go (1.5), node.js/npm and PostgreSQL (9.1+).
