We sometimes want to announce keynotes.

So, for those, we would like to have a nice picture of the speaker on one side, and text from on the other side.

The text would be provided directly by the user instead of some database/scrapper.

I think there are various use cases for this. So, one could think about a library of templates.

Another use case is: I want to be able to apply template changes without changing the standard template. One could think of a nice UI for this kind of stuff, perhaps copying an existing template, and given them names, being able to select from.

The general idea being a kind of content-management system for any "attached"/image bits for tweets, possibly based on/build around templates.

I like these buttons on Twitter:

Perhaps an "attach image", "attach abstract" and/or "attach video" buttons.

Images can be attached from the "attach image" button like this:

Or dragged in:

Interesting note:

Twitter has the functionality to edit the uploaded image:

With the abstract, perhaps the paper is shown on the left with a preview on the right, so as you modify it the preview updates, though I'm not sure on the best way to approach this yet.

Possible libraries:

Drag 'n Drop: react-dropzone ~Node - Receiving images: mutler~ KoaBody already handles this
