About

As a venue organizer, I wanted to create an app so people could post some pictures of them during the event and expose them to a central screen. Then give them the ability to download the picture. I wanted to make it open source so people could use it for their own events.

Features

• Dynamic QR code generation
• Email sending
• Image moderation through IA
• Picture coverflow style
• Picture download (single or bulk)
• Picture upload
• PIN for easy access on external screen
