Add and change pictures for a given project

Allow users to add or change pictures for a specific project. Must figure out how to store photos in the database (probably best to have a file path to DB)

Hey @celinehuang ,

• Does that mean that every project has a list of pictures? (Could have multiple pics, could have 0 pics as well)
• Would we want to create a 'Photo' model and have a 1 to n relationship (1 Project to n Photos)
• When you say store photos in the database, are you referring to actually storing them in the table? (Encode img to base64) Or are you saying that we'll have a folder specifically to store the imgs.

Thanks!

Yes, I believe so

Yes I think this is a really good idea!

Hm what I had in mind was more like storing them in Amazon S3 or Firebase or Cloudflare - I guess neither in an actual table nor in a folder

Thanks @celinehuang !

• I'll look into defining the schema for the 'Photo' model and create the corresponding issue for it then
• I'll also look into the three suggestions you gave and keep you posted
