I have built something similar but only for photos - https://viroop.com. It is free for now. You have to run this command on the extracted app for MacOS to not show you the dreaded "App is damaged" dialog - `xattr -d com.apple.quarantine Viroop.app`.
My app is built with tauri too. It supports all kinds of images - - JPEG - PNG - TIFF - WEBP - BMP - ICO - GIF - AVIF - HEIC/HEIF and RAW images from various camera manufacturers.
The image reading and processing (for exporting images) is all done on the rust side. These are the crates i use
- image
- libheif-rs -> to read HEIF/HEIC images
- rawler -> to read JPEGs embedded inside RAW images
- libraw -> to convert RAW images to JPEGs and PNGs
- rexiv2 -> to read image exif data
I use the candle crate to download the CLIP model and generate index pairs for images. I store the faiss indexes in a file on the file system.
I am using the app personally for about a month and it feels amazing to use something you have built yourself.
I hope to add an image editor to the app in the future so that I have my own app management and editing software which is enough for my ametuer needs.
I have been making a photo management app for myself (https://viroop.com/) since i hate paying the monthly Adobe tax for Lightroom. I like Lightroom but for my needs, paying $10 per month is too much.
I have built the basic photo management functionality. I have also added conversational search using the CLIP model, which is working really well.
I hope to add a photo editor to the app because that's the part i love about Lightroom. It's a photo management app with a built in photo editor (which is really good).
My guess is most people will end us listening to a lot of rehashed mediocre stuff. People will get addicted to listening to random conversations and won't even know what else to do. It will be like twitter but without any feedback mechanism. It will replace people's song listening time with a less melodic medium. Scary.
I have been calling myself a frontend engineer for last 7 years. Not that i did not know html and css but my focus was always on javascript. This year i focused on web accessibility and that made me realise how much i didn't know about html and css. I now figure out how my component (<react_developer>) will look implemented just in html and css and then add interactivity with javascript. It feels like someone cleaned my hazy glasses. Accessibility for the win.
A site which keeps track of which of these 'Idea Sunday' ideas actually got implemented and how are they doing 1 year, 2 years, 5 years or 10 years later. Will give empirical data only how powerful are ideas.
