Roadmap
Aspirationally, this is what I want to add to Fotema.
- Machine learning.
- Face detection and person recognition, supporting features such as naming a face and then generating an album of all faces that are similar. Preferably in pure Rust, but needs be as needs must.
- Object and animal recognition.
- Text recognition, supporting such features as copying text out of a photo or searching for photos containing particular text.
- Search by recognized items, such as "all photos of Sven with a dog".
- A dashboard page showcasing people, places, and events.
- Swipe and keyboard support for the photo/video viewer.
- Fewer (preferably zero) Flatpak permissions.
