Inky Impression web based image management

I threw together a little project to make management of images and displaying them easier

You can find it on my github here GitHub - ryanlane/epaper-image-frame: image display with web interface to manage your epapar display

I’m still working on some improvements and hopefully get the cropping tools to work with touch on mobile devices soon.

Very nice. FastAPI is on my “need-to-learn-list”.

What I would change: don’t use server-side rendering (Jinja). Send the data and the relevant java-script to the client (browser) and let the browser do the rendering. Especially if you want to support mobile devices, this is the way to go. Portrait or landscape mode, smartphone or tablet, different screen sizes and so on are so much easier.

Added bonus: you greatly reduce the load on the server.

Portrait / Landscape mode is one I need to get in soon.

I’ll look in to client side templating. Might be interesting to play around with. The web interface currently works well on desktop and mobile.
