This website is a 4-week project for the _Software Atelier 3_ class in USI. This
|
2021-02-02 14:48:52 +00:00
|
|
|
was a group project of 4 people, in which I took turn at being the team leader.

|
The function of this website is to allow sharing parts of videos already

uploaded on _Youtube_ or _Vimeo_ without _freebooting_ the original content

creator. The user can specify a video link and a start-end time, and publish a
|
2021-02-03 12:03:48 +00:00
|
|
|
post on the platform. The post will appear as an either _Youtube_ or _Vimeo_

|
embedded video player looping automatically in the specified interval. Users can
|
|
|
|
|
also like and comment on posts, create playlists/albums of posts, and follow other
|
|
|
|
|
users and get notified of their uploads.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The website also features a special GIF generation feature implemented through
|
|
|
|
|
`youtube-dl` and `ffmpeg`.

|
|
|
