Getting started

Babygramz is a digital scrapbook for sharing photos with friends and family—a home-cooked app. It allows you to create a password-protected photo feed with the ethos of a physical scrapbook and feel of a modern social media app.

Installation

Warning

Babygramz is mostly ready for others to test, but the use of the babygramz.com domain is still hardcoded in the application in a few places.

• Configure database settings in .env. I've tested it with mariadb and sqlite.
• Install PHP dependencies via composer install
• Install Node dependencies via npm install && npm run build
• Run migrations via php artisan migrate

FAQ

Why is the Github project named bbdb?

Because it's a DB for (photos of) BB 👶

TODOs

• The application was originally written using Pocketbase and Preact. Since I rewrote it using Laravel, I have not ported over the end-to-end tests nor fixed the Github action to properly run the PHP tests.
