[DISCUSSION] project requirements

[Maxelweb]

So basically we will have the following components:

• Telegram BOT: we send here images we want to process. These images are then saved inside mariaDB as blob; also the author that uploaded the image will be reported.
• Backend API: the backend in responsible to collect and organize images for the frontend app.
• MariaDB: the database will collect all images and serve them upon backend request.
• Frontend App (Ionic): this app will show the latest meme under review. Everyone see the same meme on the smartphone and can classify it as dank or not (optional). At start, someone can choose a random nickname, then is immediatly teleported to memes.

Since we have few people using this app, everyone can get control of the meme under visualization at any time.

Or we can think about personal sessions, based on who is using the app (that's too hard, maybe later)
Example, i want to join Alice while she's watching memes from the app. Once i join this session, only Alice can control memes under visualization. The source of the memes will be always the same, and the current meme under review will be the last one for everyone.

In the end, everything will execute using Docker (except for the ionic app).

• Single session with exclusive control: whenever someone wants to take the lead of the current session, it automatically can take over the others.
• FIFO Queue, if the session is active then the new image is placed at the last position; we saved the current image session for the next times.
• Slideshow, but time can be optional (e.g. 10 seconds).

Hello, long time follower here. I'm really interested in this cool project but i find this unacceptable and frankly disturbing:

In the end, everything will execute using Docker (except for the ionic app).

I think that the ionic app should also run inside a docker container. You should install docker on the smartphones.
