Show HN: A simple poll app with real-time results

7 points by hixup 13y ago

Hi!This is a web app I made over the past few days as a little project to learn more about AngularJS and Firebase. The app lets you create a simple poll in a matter of seconds and without the need to register. The votes and comments are updated in real time.I was impressed by Angular's features and its relative ease of learning. Thanks to Firebase I could concentrate on writing client-side code only; there is no back-end to this app. This means I can host it for free through GitHub Pages.Your opinions and suggestions are most welcome. What do you like? What would you change? Any feature requests? You can have a look at the code here: https://github.com/dbbert/personal/tree/gh-pages. Coding style advice is also much appreciated.Thanks!Bert
