Project

You are required to build an image sharing web app on Wix Studio for a fictitious client, StudioImg.

  • ‘Home’ page

  • ‘Image’ page 

  • ‘Add Image’ page

  • ‘My Images’ page

  • ‘Edit Tags’ lightbox

  • ‘Confirm Deletion’ lightbox

Each stored image must include fields for: a Title, Description, Image File and Tags

 

*Take note, the wireframes provided are merely a design suggestion. As long as your web app meets the requirements below, you can use your own design and it will not affect your final score.

  • If a logged in site member uploaded the image that is currently being displayed, the ‘Edit Tags’ and ‘Delete Image’ buttons must be visible on the page, otherwise they must remain hidden

  • The ‘Download’ button should download the corresponding image to the site member’s browser

  • The ‘Delete’ button should open the ‘Confirm Deletion’ lightbox

‘Edit Tags’ lightbox requirements

  • The lightbox must allow site members to edit tags on public images uploaded by their account

  • Clicking on the ‘Yes’ button must update the existing image which will save the user-defined tags, and then close the lightbox

  • Clicking on the ‘No’ button must cancel the edit action, and then close the lightbox

‘Confirm Deletion’ lightbox requirements

  • This lightbox must allow site members to delete public or private images uploaded by their account

  • The lightbox must include a ‘Yes’ button to approve a deletion, and a ‘No’ button to cancel a deletion action and then close the lightbox in both cases.

You must also implement one of the following features: 

  •  Use a third party email service provider and build a solution to send site members the following two emails in a automated way:

  • An email congratulating the user when they upload their first public (not private) image

  • An email that congratulates users for being on the platform for 1 week

  • Use a third party computer vision service provider to give Tags to public image content upon upload. Then, create an exposed API endpoint that allows you to query a list of public images using a single tag as an input parameter.

General

  • Your web app must be built on the Wix Studio Editor
