imagebase

Simple image database application which is a companion to a talk about hybrid web applications.

Slides are on slideshare: http://www.slideshare.net/jamesdac/hybrid-web-applications

Each branch builds on the next to improve the functionality / UX:

• initial: no JavaScript, simulation of traditional web app
• basic_pjax: adds master-detail view to dashboard
• modal: adds modal popup for editing image details
• discover: decouples urls from server using json
• animation: nicer transistions from master to master-detail
• replace_state: uses replaceState instead of pushState
• sync: adds updates for multiple areas of the page to keep them in sync
• master: adds 3D transforms for editing/viewing an image

Setting up

This is a Django application so setup involves the typical steps.

• create a virtualenv
• pip install -r requirements.txt
• setup a database and run python ./manage.py syncdb
• run python ./manage.py runserver
