50mm |一个简单易用的图像库Web应用程序
http://github.com/agile-leaf/50mm50mm is a photo gallery web application that I made when I couldn't find anything matching my requirements. 我想要一些没有数据库也能工作的东西, use an S3 backed image storage, 并使用Imgix实时图像处理服务对所显示的图像进行优化.
没有找到任何符合要求的东西，我在Golang创建了50mm. 它使用内置的HTTP服务器和Golang HTML模板. 它与S3集成用于存储，并使用Imgix进行实时图像处理.
除了为我自己的照片库提供动力之外, it is now used by at least two other people that I know of to showcase their own image collections.
