Every image upload is added to the user's profile and can be shared with other users. \n- After uploading the image, the user's unique hash created from their profile is encoded within the image. Users can `verify` an image's `copyright` and see if it matches with the user who uploaded the image. If the verification fails, users can flag an image to take down, protecting the original creator's copyright.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/64848982/114246722-f1812a80-99b0-11eb-8d79-705978fc712f.png\"\u003e\n\n## 📱 Progressive WebApp\nSocioMark is now a Progressive WebApp for better accessibility and user experience. It allows users to install the app directly from the web to their desktops/home screens and provides the native app-like experience.\n\nBeing a fully responsive and compatible application, it provides users with the same experience across tablets, mobile devices, and desktops!\n\n\u003cp align=\"center\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg alt=\"Light\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/34866653/114988100-8dc89700-9eb3-11eb-892a-217aa0b5622c.jpg\" width=\"45%\"\u003e\n\u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp; \u0026nbsp;\n  \u003cimg alt=\"Dark\" src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/34866653/114988153-a0db6700-9eb3-11eb-81d8-1a84eae83aa3.png\" width=\"50%\"\u003e\n\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\n## ⚛ Tech Stack\n- Frontend : ReactJS (JavaScript), Tailwind CSS\n- Backend : FastAPI (Python3)\n- Database : MongoDB\n- Image Processing : OpenCV (Python3)\n\n## 💻 Run the project locally\n- Clone the repo ```https://github.com/MLH-Fellowship/SocioMark.git```\n- Navigate to ```SocioMark/backend```\n- Run command to install all the Python (Server) dependencies ```pip install -r requirements.txt``` \n- Navigate to ```http://localhost:8000/docs``` to view the Swagger API end-points\n- Navigate to ```SocioMark/frontend```\n- Run command to install all the JavaScript (Client) dependencies ```npm install``` \n- Run command ```npm start```\n- Navigate to ```http://localhost:3000/```\n\n## 🚩 How to Contribute\n- You can check out the [CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/MLH-Fellowship/SocioMark/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) file in the repo 😄.\n\n## 🤓 Future Improvements\n- Follower functionality that improves interaction between users and lets users customize their feed pages\n- Implement pagination for feed\n- Sharing functionality to share images outside of platform\n\n## 🤔 Challenges\n- One of the main challenges we ran into with this project is incorporating the numerous functions required of a social media platform.\n- From login and registering authentication to implementing like and comment functionality for posts and even building user profiles, there are many parts to creating a viable social media app, and it took a lot of work to implement everything.\n- Additionally, building the encoder required a lot of research and trial and error. Finally, integrating the frontend and the backend of the platform and debugging the full functionality proved to be a challenge as well.\n\n## ✨ Credits\n- [Aitik Gupta](https://github.com/aitikgupta)\n- [Bodhisha Thomas](https://github.com/bodhisha)\n- [Deepak Agrawal](https://github.com/DebugAgrawal)\n- [Sumi Kolli](https://github.com/sgkolli535)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmlh-fellowship%2Fsociomark","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmlh-fellowship%2Fsociomark","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmlh-fellowship%2Fsociomark/lists"}
