Show HN: Phonestagram – photos filters and sharing using MMS, Nodejs and Socket.io
- untog 12y agoThis is cool. Another interesting implementation is one that runs in the browser and applies filters to locally captured images using the Canvas API. Here's an example: http://www.noupe.com/development/howto-build-an-instagram-clone-with-html5-76833.html http://www.noupe.com/development/howto-build-an-instagram-cl... That really fascinates me because we now have access to taking photos, reading in the raw data and manipulating it without sending a single byte to the server.
- crabasa 12y agoAuthor here. This application uses CamanJS [1] which depends on Node-Canvas [2], a Node implementation of the Canvas API. So all the cool things you can do with Canvas in the browser you can also do on the server side. But I see your point. Love what you can do in the browser these days.
