# Bluesky Altometer
The Bluesky Altometer is a tool that measures the number of image posts on Bluesky that are missing alt text. It provides real-time statistics and a visual gauge to track the percentage of images lacking alternative text, promoting awareness about accessibility in the Bluesky social network.
## Installation
1. Clone this repository:
```
git clone https://github.com/Zetaphor/bluesky-altometer.git
cd bluesky-altometer
```
2. Install the required Python packages:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
## Usage
1. Start the server:
```
python main.py
```
2. Open a web browser and navigate to `http://localhost:8080`
3. The Bluesky Altometer will start tracking and displaying statistics about alt text usage in Bluesky image posts.
## How It Works
The Bluesky Altometer connects to the Bluesky Jetstream API to receive real-time updates about new posts. It analyzes each post containing images and checks for the presence of alt text. The data is stored in a SQLite database and served to the frontend via a WebSocket connection, allowing for live updates of the statistics and gauge.
